True, but it depends on how you want to look at it - or, how hungry you are.
If you're currently a "small" host with a couple 100mbit lines and you were able to land Quiets account for example ... you could probably scale your own connection up to a gigE and get rates much lower than you are currently paying for those 200mbits of your own.
I wont name them here, but I'm sure you have heard there is a
very competitively priced provider in the market right now offering premium BGP routed/mixed bandwidth.
So anyway, by servicing Quiet, your own 200mbits could cost you much less, AND you may have another 400mbits of free pipe to sell are more rates more comeptitive than what you previously had.
Not that Quiet is wanting to switch hosts.. sounds more like he's just wanting to renegotiate a price that is competitive in the new market.
