If 60% of all the traffic is still MP3 related then what is the point?
Sounds like to me (as an outsider) that most of these implementations
have mainly hurt the folks that have a legitimate use for the bandwidth
(like the IDD)

Hi gang,

NIU went to Packateer some time ago. No problems to report. We not only 
have a web cache for banner and pop-ups ads, but Packateer as well, which 
really helps us. Even so, more than 60% of all traffic is MP3 related. But 
the only delays I see are occasionally a 15-30 minute delay on HDS during 
peak periods around 10AM.
