Post by: GilloD on September 18, 2009, 06:20:32 AM
700 kb/s torrent downloads for 12 won a month. That's about 8 bucks. Suck my dong, America!

At least we don't have to live across the border from a third-world communist dictatorship that's armed with nuclear bombs. Yeah, good luck with that, buddy.

It would still be worth it for 700 kb/s downloads.  :'(

I'm pretty sure that's how Canadians feel about us, actually.

My download speeds would occasionally top 1MB/sec if there were a lot of seeders.

I usually get around 2 - 2.5 MB/sec on my racing-underground torrents  ???

I'M pretty sure that's the joke.

BTW, GilloDeeeeeeee, Japan's got the whole internet thing down pretty well. We've got fiber-optic to home, and my fastest torrent speed so far was 2.6MB/s. I AM ABLE TO DOWNLOAD LINUX ROMS LIKE CRAZY.

I think I heard more about North Korea in America than in South Korea. Most SKs never even think about it and when they do it's like "Oh, our crazy brother upstairs.". Older Koreans may have family there and are more bothered by it.
