Which suggests Comcast's real aim may be to force Level 3 to peer.

  Could be. Comcast is easy to hate for whatever reasons as so many people actually have contact with them. Level 3 in my experience is run by complete incompetents and perhaps just as aggressive with lock-in tactics. Anyone know anything about L3's current strength? Their stock doesn't look good but I have no idea what's going on inside. I wouldn't at all be surprised if this is because L3 wouldn't peer to comcast or wanted to give them some sort of premium tier pricing for no added value or some other mess happened in the past between the two...

  Comcast and Level 3 were already free peering before this dispute; now they're paid peering.
