The article is an interesting read, but I feel like the author paints the ISPs as knights in shining armor. I particularly have a problem with this line, "But Netflix (NFLX, Tech30) and other bandwidth-hungry applications are forcing broadband providers' hands. Video over the Internet is cramping networks and slowing connection speeds." From my vantage point, that unfairly places the blame on the content providers.
