kwaad
i see what oyur saying about the downloading being slow etc..
However the matter of the fact is that most european and asian countries have at least 24mbit connections and relatively cheap.
England for example unlmited 24mbit is about $50US with some ISP. In japan you can get 100mbit connections for around the same price.
So your point is valid to some degree of it being a hassell to download such huge files.
