Japan and Korea lead the world in Internet Speed vs. Costs…

I’ve seen this chart on several blogs the last few days, and thought it was quite useful. It aims to present a geographic view of average internet speeds around the world in relation to the monthly cost per every 1 Mbps.

It’s great to see Japan and Korea leading the pack so prominently… and more than 10 times the average speed in the US…

Japan 61 Mbps… at a cost of 0.27 US$ per 1 Mbps
Korea 46 Mbps… at a cost of 0.45 US$ per 1 Mbps
USA 4.8 Mbps… at a cost of 3.33 US$ per 1 Mbps
