If I were Netflix, why would I buy all my transit from Cogent[1], given Cogent's propensity for getting into peering fights with people *already*, even before *I* start sending them 1000:1 asymmetric outbound traffic?
Perhaps Netflix expect this to be an ongoing problem with moree ISPs asking them to pay to deliver (following Bretts lead ;-), so with their previous transits experience why would they continue to buy from pussies?
So why would Cogent offer Netflix a helluva deal?
Previous events have shown Cognet only use live rounds, so why would they not take the opportunity to get a bigger gun? Mutually assured domination. Perhaps one will buy the other sometime. brandon
