Thanks everyone for the great feedback!

I sold quite a memberships to Japan.

Even a few to South Korea.

Verotel offers Asian Card which is what South Korea uses.

I agree that most eastern blocks are a complete writeoff. Excluding Japan and South Korea, the rest of asia is a waste of bandwidth.

For my themes, my best members come from:

Germany, Denmark, UK, Australia, Canada, US, New Zealand, Finland, Sweden, Switzerland, France.

Brasil has a small amount of friendly traffic - but for the most part they're one small step down from russian hackers.

My bandwidth costs are 5 times what it costs in the US and the expense of servicing traffic which will probably never convert is significant.

Does anyone route their traffic differently for different geographic sources?
