To put this another way, imagine two networks. One is a large
content provider, they target webhosting customers. One is a large
access provider, they target end-users. I think that being able to reach
a large number of end-users is a benefit to the first network. I also
think that being able to reach a large amount of content is a benefit to
the second network. If they peer, their traffic ratio will be
1:1 yet both networks gain significant ( imho ) benefit. Bill and keep
seems the only sensible way to me.

If they peer, the traffic ratio will _NOT_ be 1:1, more like 10:1 or 1:10
[depending on which way you are looking].
