This is a topic I get very soap-boxish about. I have too many problems

calculate your bill.

My thoughts are Cogents primary customers are sites that are looking for
very cheap bandwidth, which most likely is adult content. Therefore they
would look more like a content provider than a transit provider.
Cogent is making in roads at a lot of Universities who want, as we all
know,
