Don't get me, or I think Daniel, wrong, anycast is fun, but it's not for everyone. The main goal for comcast should be stability, regardless of how they implement that, eh?No, they want to maximize the pricepoint/stability function (which has multiple maxima/minima corresponding to various market niches). They want to pay as little as possible for sufficient stability to not torque off the customer base into migrating to another provider.
oops, I wasn't clear what I meant and didn't type properly was: "the goal for comcast is stability, you don't care how they achieve that" which still isn't 100% correct, but basically let them do their operations and lets not pot-shot something that 'we' don't understand. I'm assuming that peter hill is not a comcast employee, his email headers suggest a CMU grad and a current Amazon employee. go tartans.
