I might actually expect it to be a smaller part of the traffic than 5.6%. Each news farm only has to download each message or message part once. It might also send out messages to other peers, but all the end user downloading is local network bandwidth. I would expect the real cost to the ISP being in scaling out to handle all the disc I/O involved in feeding that data out to it's customers at the collective rate of their connection speeds. -Cameron ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;203748912;27390454;j Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:262611 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
