Scott:

    Ratios are normally applied to either direction, since it is not
totally understood who benefits from what traffic direction. Who benefits:
the eyball or the content provider???

I would say that both, which is why I personally feel that ratios are
misapplied in a lot of instances.

( Some providers feel that it benefits neither the eyeball or the content
  provider to peer, they would like both to pay them for transit )

BTW Peter, thanks for killing our peering sessions.  I guess our eyeballs
were of no benefit to your content providers?  *shrug*
