Re: S.Korea broadband firm sues Netflix after traffic surge

In the old days, postal services used to charge the recipient of a letter 
to deliver the letter. Then stamps were invented, and postal services 
charged the sender of the letter, and the recipent got free delivery.

Now there is free-shipping, and pre-paid return envelopes for DVDs.

Of course, the shipping isn't really "Free."  Its built into the cost of 
goods sold.

There is no universal, fixed, unchangable way of allocating business 
costs.
