Fair enough, in the cases where operators are Netflix OC partners and
might see a shift in network use from a Netflic OC appliance to

But for an operator who doesn't have an OC Appliances, is there likely
to be much difference? I suppose that was the context I was thinking
in.
Sure. You could see changes in where traffic comes from. It may
shift from peering to transit.
That said, I (admittedly, idly) wonder what percentage of users (world-
wide, by nation, geographical area, etc.) are served by OC Appliances.
I really have no clue as to the penetration of OC Appliances.
OCAs make a huge difference in our network. Between the two ASs we
operate in different regions - to the tune of maybe 40 Gbps.
