OK, my neighbors have Netflix.

They cut their cable.

Netflix takes up a huge portion of the internet.

I just want to read short miniscule by comparison text from here and other sites.

I can’t read FR because my neighbor has Netflix?

I see that Comcast charged Netflix an EXTRA CHARGE to “speed up” access for Netflix. I’m sure those millions of dollars being charged to Netflix is being passed on to me as a customer of Netflix.

The thing is, I pay for my bandwidth already. Netflix pays for its bandwidth ... so why am I having to pay MORE when both sides have paid FULLY for bandwidth?

I never have trouble witching TV in several rooms and surfing the net on a couple puters all at the same time.

If a provider wants to sell unlimited service, then it has to be unlimited for all, even Netflix users. If there are too many Netflix users or they are using too much data, they should switch to a metered plan for all. This way low users wouldn’t subsidize us Netflix users. For the record, my cable internet provider offers a high end internet plan for video streaming. I have it and my Netflix movies load instantly, even in HD.
