In my opinion, BGP is best for inter-AS communications.  Granted, your
customer may not have their own AS, but they are autonomous from your
network, so the buffer that BGP provides is more suited to the task.  With
BGP, you don't have to worry about what the customer network looks like.
Since it's an autonomous system, you only receive and announce routes
according to what is configured.  With OSPF, your customer has an increased
ability to affect the routing within your domain.

Mike
