Lets do that.

And this.

Ok. How about:

8) I sell you a "network service" which lets you access a few servers I 
run in public address space that you can store backups on. I let you use 
a /20 of my space at your end to access those servers, but I don't have 
a circuit or tunnel to you... you just use IP routing to reach them. 
Since I don't provide you with a circuit, I give you an LOA so you can 
use this space with some other transit provider.

Yes, of course. They have 3000 desktop machines that they back up every 
day, for the purpose of this discussion.
