Barry Murphy 06/29/05 2:38 PM >>> For providers not connected to the peering exchanges will the content be delivered from the USA?

Yes, at the 'standard' rate of 16 or 24 kbs. This rate is on a par with other Public Broadcasters. Peering ISPs get higher rates from the local servers.

This would mean those providers will only get the USA content and wont be allowed to hear the copyright audio?

NZ Restricted audio, actually. We use the exchange infrastructure to limit the distribution of some content. At the start there won't be any NZ restricted content (apart from Enzology). We expect demand for the service to be quite high, and don't want to have to sort between help desk calls from consumers who's ISPs do not peer and people who have a genuine problem. R.
