There are tons and tons and tons of organizations that will sell the operator of a network content to sell to that operator's subscribers directly. Most well known is the cable coop, who only exists to do just that. The problem is that what's been proposed is that the network operator be able to then turn around and offer those services as a whole sale level to another operator, on the same physical but not not layer 2, plant. That's what I don't think you can get contracts inked for.
I proposed it, and I immediately scratched the idea, when I found out that my notional ISP clients could themselves get it from such vendors to offer at retail. So we can stop trying to make that *particular* type of glue now. :-) Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
