    Surely this is just because the majority of people in Durbs are poor and can't afford 4mb+ connections?

    I'm quite surprised to see Joburg way down the list.

    Article should read "best cities for downloading porn"
    Connection speed != to uber l337 gaming.

    Other factors such as ping, jitter and more importantly packet loss determines whether you will have a good "City" for gaming.

    Edit: I know the article mentions that the index includes other metrics but show them not just SPEED!

    There doesn't seem to be that much of a difference between them all. I dunno about the rest of you but my line fluctuates all the time, there's always at least a megabit of play going on.
