Download speed is highly relative to latency (bandwidth/delay product). If you have global users and you actually want them to download dozens (if not more) of gigs of data, then yea...they should be distributed.

Fuck for as much hate as cloudflare and akamai (and Amazon and Google and all the others too, but CDN is their bread and butter) get, the internet could not be nearly as fast and efficient if not for CDNs and their massively scalable infrastructure.

Unless you think we should all go back to hosting websites off of an old Pentium in the garage. Which...okay yeah we should do that too, but it's not at all functional for game distribution.
