If eliminating the Electoral College means big urban areas will have a skewed advantage toward electing a President, then No, I'm not in favor.
And yes, I live in an urban area of approximately 2.5-3M people.
As long as the Electoral College keeps the ratio of a state's population-to-number of votes allocated correct, I feel the system is fine.
