You guys are missing the big picture. The end of net neutrality can very well kill the internet as we know it. You don't think Microsoft bought WebTV for no reason do yea? Everyone laughed at Bill Gates for buying webTV but I will be you anything it will be his biggest and smartest move ever.

The internet is going to go the way of IPTV and all your cable companies will offer all their services via the web in the next 10 years. Doing away with Net Neutrality paves the path for them. They will set up their own private networks and offer a webTV package via a cable box that hooks into your TV.

Will be something like how AOL works today, but will be your TV and web all together. They will then charge fees to have your sites included in their networks. Once the corporate Mongols get their hands on the net, they will rip it apart and milk every dollar they can out of it.

Net Neutrality was the Decoration of Independence for the internet. When it's gone, the internet as we know today will slow fade into the past in exchange for easy no brains service packages given to you by your cable/tel-com providers.
