Yeah. I had assumed that the peer-to-peer distribution method would only be used in the beta. When OB was coming to a close, one of the Blizzard staff on the forums hinted that they would be using it for retail as well, I posted essentially the same thing - that my internet connection isn't free, and I shouldn't have to pay for the privilege of helping Blizzard push out patches to their customers.

Of course, there was no official response to my post, or any of the countless other posts saying the same thing. Given Blizzard's attitude towards their customers during beta and the first month of retail, I don't expect we'll see any improvement in the patch download mechanism any time soon.
