And when ISP A buys access from ISP B for purpose of getting to ISP C is that peering or transit?
I thought it was generally accepted that "peering" is the exhange of routes that are not re-sent to other organisations.

"Transit" is when one entity sends the routes on to other organsiations, often with money involved.
