Interesting thought.

This may be true for some smaller countries, but believe me, it's MORE
expensive to get a line from "somewhere in Germany" to one of the major
IXes than to get upstream from a number of big ISPs at wherever you are. 

(The ratio changes if you reach a given size, but for small bandwidths,
say "below 20 Mbit/s.", going to an IX is just not financially attractive)
