ITunes download err = -43 What does it mean and how do I solve ti?

After purchasing several movies from iTunes, and leaving them in iCloud until I wish to watch them (saving HD space), I am encountering numerous problems downloading them to my MBPro (late 2011 model running OS 10.7.5, iTunes 11.1.3 (8)). Namely, the last four downloads I attempted only get so far into the download before they quit, giving me either a "err = -50" or "err = -43" error. The download times are atrocious ... 3 or (many) more hours to download a 90 min HD movie! I'd rather watch paint dry. That aside, "err = -43" has me stumped. I can find no reference to it anywhere in any of the forums. I am beginning to have flashbacks to OS 9, if any of you can recall the end of its life, when my overwhelming desire was to fling my Walstreet laptop against the wall. iTunes can go the same way, far as I'm concerned. This coming from a devoted Apple loyalist for 27+ years.
I have taken a screenshot of the download box with the error messages, but that doesn't seem to want to upload to this forum.
Tried again and successfully uploaded screne shot ... if you look behind the dialogue box, you'll see the "err = -43" I was speaking of. Have tried all of the obvious solutions ... restarts, zapping ram, repairing permissions, emptying cache. Nothing seems to be working. Then there's the ongoing "err = -50" problem. Sigh.
