Easy - you are based in the USA, so very likely most of your traffic volume will be in this general area. Where I am based, while there is a lot of traffic volume to North America, there are also large volumes to Pacific and Asia. So therefore the over all USA and NA % is smaller from this part of the world, hence the up line can make enough profit over all that they are less likely to view it as a loosing proposition. There is of course also the psychological element that companies are more polite to people overseas... _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
