If I approach that level I would certainly shop for a better deal. One option is to buy directly from a bandwidth provider that is already feeding the facility and pay the data center $50/month for the cross-connect. I will point out that the $6000/month price has no setup costs. I just send an email or make a phone call and I have it within a few hours.
This is good non-cogent bandwidth.
