If DTAG asked for 1 EUR/Gigabyte, would you still maintain that position? 10 EUR? 100 EUR? Is there any point where you would consider the behaviour of DTAG inappropriate/unfair?

BTW, nobody is denying that they in fact are an important ISP, where "important" means "lots of customers", which in turn means "lots of power". Someone holding a gun to your head also has a lot of power and thus is important to you - but power in neither case automatically implies that any offer the powerful party is making is a fair offer, be it that they ask you to give them all your money to avoid being killed, or that they ask you to pay massively above-market rates to avoid being unreachable for their customer base.
