I downloaded it a week or so ago. Been playing on Khyber. For what it's worth, the client I downloaded was 2.9 GB up front and then streaming the rest of the package across meant I had significant enough lag for 2-3 days that I couldn't do much more than solo quests, but that has since gone away and I'm able to run in parties of 5-6 now.
And, yes, it is possible to play in 20-30 minute increments, although some of the quest chains can take a few hours.
I'm sure it's not the best MMO out there, but it's enjoyable enough, and Turbine's "freemium" model fits my playtime anyway. I play it enough to enjoy it, but not enough that I'd ever have paid the monthly fee anyway.
I might end up ponying up for the odd quest pack here or there, but from what I understand you can do quests in a party even if you don't have the content, as long as the initiator does. You just can't solo it or start your own party for those quests until you pony up for the quest pack.
