Salut Daniel, This is not accurate. Since the blast from MSblast, they change the way you get to windowsupdate with akamai.
From where YOU are it resolves to 216.52.232.135 From where I am, it resolves to 207.126.99.157 From where John Smith is, it resolves to another IP.
This way, the load is distributed. It's a DNS trickery.
