    Which makes sense when you consider much of the current traffic flows.

    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!
