Yes we are. Points about them 1. Yes the boxes are really free, you just give them power, space, network connection. 2. They get paid by Amazon and other streaming platforms for each gb of traffic that they deliver but like limelight or akamai 3. We peer with the box over BGP and they announce a /32 ip from their own ip space 4. The amazon video client will direct client traffic to the above /32 5. It only works with your ASN and does not work with downstream ASN 6. It only works with live streaming content, it does not store any content. When a client requests a live steam then the box will pull it from the upstream CDN server. When a 2nd client requests the same steam then the box will send it out without having to pull down another steam 7. Today amazon streaming is working, later this year NBC and peacock steaming support is coming for all networks. Peacock is enabled for some ASNs.
