Shame Netflix can't fill their appliances using really cheap, bulk, one-way
satellite bandwidth which is useless for most other Internet applications.
Then their traffic wouldn't use any of your real, paid for, transit.
Of course siting a dish would be another expense with hosting one of their
boxes, but if it made the on-going costs go away...
