That "many" countries means the first world only, and then only cities in my part of the first world. They are thinking some kind of radio link instead.
You know... it's funny... I have better internet speeds when I'm visiting friends in Narobi Kenya than I do when I'm visiting my parents back in Canada. No really... I get way better internet connections on my computer in Nairobi than I can hope for in rural Canada. I often forget how slow those outside Europe have it - I'm on a 20Mbit cable connection (yes.. twenty Mbit) here at my house in Europe. It's fast to say the least (recently bumped up to compete with the ADSL2 connections that are available where I live). And downloading ISOs is easy and fast. In Canada, my friend's & family are lucky to get 512Kbit (if it's even available) - a couple are on 1Mbit connections... they live in the city.... a couple others only have 56k dialup (not even ISDN works where they live)... but either way, downloading ISOs is a major undertaking, and BitTorrent is either barely tolerated, or simply won't work at all (in the case of my parent's satellite internet connection... latency is way too high for BitTorrent to work).
