It gets even more interesting when you look at the fast-increasing number of fat FiOS pipes. When you take (edonkey/kazaa/ptp-du-jour)+FiOS you get a network of distributed 'content providers'. Reference the earlier post about broadband getting a lot less interesting w/o the content. Well this rings true when you weigh the traffic load of 100K's of users poking around in a portal vs. 100K's of users 'shopping' for music & movies! ___________________________________________________________ Wayne Gustavus, CCIE #7426 IP Operations Support Verizon Internet Services ___________________________________________________________ "Can you ping me now?
