	Since [[Webcache]] has become [[Webcache#Criticism\|criticized]] and [[Webcache#Abandoned\|abandoned]], the Lancast feature now remains as one of the most advantageous tools allowing for Internet providers to economize their external traffic. By promoting the use of Lancast-capable mods of eMule in LANs and/or VPNs, all the file exchange ed2k/Kad traffic between the clients of the same provider becomes local (otherwise the traffic would twice traverse the local/Internet boundary).
