Yes. Most providers can send you just their customer routes. If they send you full routes you want to discriminate 
customer vs peer routes. This is typically done with communities and is worthwhile as most people have capacity on 
customer links but via peer it may not always be the case. 

As is usual YMMV

Yes, thanks, I am going to do that.  But, is there a middle ground between being default only and full routes ?  Like 
is it advantageous for me to ask for partial routes (like their routes and direct peers and default route) ?  This 
way I don't have millions of routes but I guess only a few hundred thousand or less?  Let me know please.
