In this example I'm providing hosting and no more than hosting. No telecoms, no transit channels, no ADSL. May be domain registration.
To make that business success I need to be multihomed (no objections at this point, I think?).
Try a different angle; assume you can get decent (redundant) connectivity to one provider and thus almost as reliable as if you're sitting in their core network. If you still require multihoming, don't your arguments implicitly disqualify your upstream as a hosting-provider too (regardless of them being multihomed and/or peering at any tier)? Who can then be trusted to run hosting-operations? Only multihomed as'es with no downstreams? (*duck*) //per -- Per Heldal heldal@eml.cc
