the average person can't tell where a site is hosted.

the main thing shows with downloads and uploads.

im talking files that are megs in size.

think about it .. all those miles /kilometers they have to travel and it takes less than a second.

are you able to look at a site and say oo this deffently is over seas.

I live in Australia an host in the US. Some of my downloads are 20mb and I never get any complaints

Make sure you chose a good host though. I had one host that would always drop out on the big downloads.

I don't think it's that much of an issue for standard website useage.
