I would be very upset if I were "Company X" and I found out that you were policy-routing my traffic to the "cheap" connection vs the best connection.

Given that there wasn't any indication that the "cheap" connection was any less usable/reliable, I'd *expect* that the provider I was signing up with would (as a sheer business matter) attempt to maximize the difference between what I was paying and what transit was costing, and as a result route me through th cheapest provider that met my SLA. If I was a clever customer, I'd either phrase my SLA if I cared which transit got used, or try to negotiate that some of the savings be passed along to me ;) /Valdis
