I fail to see the point. If an ISP needs to add caches they may as well just add a simple, cheaper, standard, http cache.It's a bang-per-buck issue, and depends highly on whether your particular network sees more HTTP or P2P traffic.
Orly. No, I mean if there have to be caches why use p2p in the first place, once there's a network of caches p2p becomes a more complicated http and that model has been well optimised by some. I know the people stealing things don't want to pay akamai but games charging for access are a different matter. brandon
