      Breaking down?  It used to be that anyone connected directly
      to an exchange point was tier one, and the tiers are pretty
      obvious beyond that.  Now that everyone's at the exchanges,
      "tier one" is simply a marketing term.

I believe the latest common definition of tier 1 in that of an ISP with no 
transit.
