Yes, I do.

I think that this is something I'm trying to say, with the creation of 
this thread.

As I asked; Static content, like in files (*.zip, *.tar.gz, *.iso, etc...)

Since you are back to the Unicast thing, and as you sad the problem
with the 1 Mbit/s links, I do think your question whould be:

How could we put the cache servers right next to our DSLAM:s, 
aggregation switches (or what ever you want to place them in your 
network) and have everything that's static content, cached?

I do have an suggestion for how to solve this. See my message yesterday 
to the mailing list.
