Until the smaller companies get bought out by OneM^H^H^H^H a national provider who has no interest in peering. Quite frankly, it seems that most smaller companies have no clue what the heck peering is or why it's good. I've approached a few, and none seem to get it. One (cable company, mind you) wanted to *charge more for peering than for transit*. They thought that we would be getting some sort of "priority access" to their network, and wanted to charge a hefty price... and this was talking to a net admin, not a droid. Jeez.
