I disagree with that Richey.  You can filter out all but email traffic and
your customers can still have that.  It will be slower, but many customers
can't LIVE without email.

Why should you HAVE to pay for something that you really will never use?   I
read about guys in rural areas that are still paying $700+ for a T1.  Even
at $500/mo that's a lot of money to spend on something you will never really
use.    You might as well be down if your DS3 takes a hit and your traffic
rolls over to the T1.

Are you saying that it is not practical for you to get a T-1 so that you can
legitimately run BGP and multi home?
You can set BGP so that 99% of the traffic goes over the bigger pipe if
necessary.

I am curious where people are getting DS3's at $1500 per month? We have a
client that has a point to point DS3 for 2 buildings that are 2 blocks apart
and they pay $2000 for each end, and that *does not* include Internet
access, only point to point.
