Telstra... My backbone provider charge 19� per meg for wholesale data. Under
some circumstances (using their cache) this reduces to 14� per meg. It
matters not where the data comes from... If it comes into my server from
Telstra.net (the ISP wholesaler) I pay for it.
I think "local" traffic from ISPs like the Murdoch University, refer to what
ever comes out of their cache or the Co-operative cache they subscribe to.
I actually use the Queensland University for my personal account and
although they host the aarnet mirrors (the reason I'm there) It still costs
me as much for data as if I were pulling it through Telstra... Otherwise you
are absolutely right about where to get the ISO and what to do with it.
