Japan and south korea already have amazingly fast and high broadband penetration-- you can find 1Gbps lines in japan for under 60 bucks:>

Thats around 100MB/sec which means a 10Gb game should take approx 3-5 mins tops to download.

Localized regions of geographically small countries is not a convincing argument. These countries also happen to hard the largest tech infrastructure budgets in the world since they are also home to a few of the largest tech companies in the world.  Find me cheap broadband in Swaziland.

Yeah, swaziland has seen amazing bluray sales...

The developed world is the target market for BR, which just so happens to be the same market with high speed internet.
