I really don’t see this happening as long as there is competition in the market place....I have at least Windstream and Time Warner available to me.

Most of us do not have such choices - I have Comcast and whatever they choose to prioritize, and I can either like it or I can go dial-up. So if Comcast chooses to prioritize their own pay-per-view service at Netflix's expense, I can either deal with limited bandwidth for my Netflix viewing or I can switch to Comcast's own service.

If Comcast tries something like that you still have options.

You can get with other members of your community and solicit other providers to come to your community to provide competition.

If you community has is one that contracts with Comcast that gives them a monopoly on providing service to your area petition your community leaders to pressure Comcast not to prioritize their own PPV service. If they do not relent your community can contract to another ISP.

My home town has had at least 3 cable service providers that I can think of in the last 40 years. Your area is not stuck with Comcast. If you don’t like them get involved and get rid of them.
