Im sorry it still doesnt make sense to me. "buy 1 tone of fish pay $10 per kg", "buy 10,000 tone of fish, pay 1 cent". Doesnt make sense!! At some point more is not that much cheaper. I doubt coming back to my CDN asking for price on 1,000 TB would bring price to 1 cent per TB.

  Would it help to say OpenConnect is the CDN?

  If they have a box in your ISP with a cache of the content, those Gigabits are coming from a a LAN and are basically free, only limited by the infrastructure.

    I see. So how can I bypass my CDN and put box with my own content inside ISP ?

      have something on that box that lots of the ISPs customers use so that it lets the ISP serve the content easily and for free to their clients
