I also imagine from the description that to begin with they have to seed the cache with data which they also will be paying for.

I see what you mean now. However, it's not as cut and dried as that. They pay someone (or multiple someones) for transit. that's not free. The fact that they are getting ~30 Mbps from the GGC means that this traffic will be delivered faster to their customers than from transit links. It doesn't mean that they are paying for 30Mb/s less transit however. It's just 30Mbps less transit than they are using. Make sense? -- Cheers, McTim "A name indicates what we seek.
