What responsibility does Verizon have to maintain this ratio?
Anybody else think peering ratios miss the point? Netflix is
theoretically in a position to have their app generate empty
back-traffic at a rate that maintains any necessary peering ratios,
but surely Verizon would scream bloody murder if they did.

I would love to see the Verizon blog response on that...
<best Verizon voice> There appears to be no congestion within the
Verizon network, but there is congestion in this little red area where
the Verizon user connects to the Verizon network. The Verizon customer
has failed to negotiate reasonable commercial terms that allow him or
her to send traffic to Netflix at the requested rate. The customer is
dropping packets... not us.</end Verizon voice>
