Tell me the cost of bandwith for an organization that peers.  How much do they 
squeeze out of those that don't?

DSL is not an option.  It has not been "Available" for me since I did not say 
yes to the Bellsouth salesman who told me that service was available.   He 
called two weeks after Bellsouth told me that DSL was not available for my new 
house for for the foreseeable future and that I'd better cancel my Telocity 
contract.  Now that Telocity -> DirectTV -> Chapter11 = Bellsouth, I imagine 
availability will come with terms similar to Cox.  Golly, Batman, a duo-opoly!

The Roman Republic and then the Empire are a treasure trove of judicial 
extortion and murder.
