why is ign video so slow?

[gbesta]

I know

8 bits = 1 byte
1024 bytes = 1 kilobyte
1024 kilobytes = 1 megabyte
1024 megabyte = 1 gigabyte

but I didn't knew they were measured in kilobits..
But my internet is VDSL, not ADSL

Sorry should have been DSL to cover ADSL, VDSL, SDSL, HDSL etc

You definitely seem to know more than I do, so I don't doubt your saying that DSLs are measured in kilobits.
Maybe it goes little bit different here in Asia.. Of course they'll measure it in kilobits officialy(This is a mere assumption since I know almost nothing of this kind of thing..) but when they make commercials or something they do it in kilobyte or megabyte just to make sure everyone understands it without getting confused.

In a commercial they will almost surely use megabits because it will make it sound faster.
