AOL & Cogent

I was poking around to see what was happening with Cogent and AOL
and ran into some interesting info.
The test that Cogent failed was a 2:1 ratio; Cogent was at 3:1 and
AOL insisted they be at no more than 2:1 for free peering.
AOL wants Cogent to pay for peering - the pricing I've heard is
$50-/meg for paid peering - which I think is more than street price
for transit...
Hmm; I wonder if this change in policy has anything to do with John
Schanz's recent move from Sprint to AOL?
