Even if it's private, and assuming that you're clever enough not to peer for a modem's worth of traffic, the cost is a no-brainer, IMHO. Someone checks my math please: At $20 per megabit for transit (which I find very low, but let's go for it anyway) a GE link for peering with an average use of 10% means $24000 per year saved; pays for the xconnect.
