There is a clear benefit in providing multi-datacenter exchanges within a metro, and both FL-IX and SIX are doing this with a very good value proposition. Having the ability to join DECIX Frankfurt from NYC and vice versa -- again, this is a bizarre service to be offered, and regular users should not be expected to pay for this. If there is a market for these services at an unsubsidized price, then fine -- but regular members should not be subsidizing this service.
Remote peers have to pay for ports and membership the same way native
