If the content is distributed by a content distribution network, and LOTS of

throttle it, their only choice is to throttle *all* of the content 
indiscriminantly.

But then the ISPs could differentiate between CDNs, couldn't they? What's to 
prevent the market from being manipulated so that a non-neutral Net can just 
discriminate against (or for) large swaths of content providers at once?
