The point of a disaster recovery plan is to be able to recover from disaster in a short period of time.
A properly set up data centre should be able to replicate it's operations in the event of a 100% failure in a reasonable length of time.
RCN was charging top dollar for what eventually turned out to be zero effective disaster recovery contingencies and now the customers are paying.
However people who are running a $60k a month operation should probably have their own contingencies in place as well.
