Tony,
All of Netflix's customers are the beneficiary of this ruling, as well
as anyone who uses Youtube, Hulu or any other streaming service. Netflix
uses the most bandwidth because they have the most customers. It isn't
only the companies like these that benefit, it's their customers. The
Internet doesn't exist as some libertarian fantasy world. The only ones
that were going to benefit from from being able to turn the hose off and
on were the one's who own the hose, not the one's who use it. Net
neutrality is not a bad thing.

Unfortunately, so-called "neutrality" means that one company, Netflix, can
corner it without paying for it. Netflix accounts for up to 35% of internet
traffic, and is really the one and only beneficiary of this ruling.
Everybody else is subsidizing them. In any event, I'm just glad I'm not a
regulator.
