I dont think its overblown, and I think itll be a slow burn rather than a switch being flipped. You wont suddenly have to pay triple to access Netflix tomorrow, but will you over time notice crappier service and be prodded to consider the new Ultimate Streaming Package? Yeah, I think thats where were heading if left unchecked.

Compare it to the gaming industry and microtransactions. You begin at horse armor and work your way up. These companies are always looking for new revenue streams and will continue to push boundaries at the expense of the consumer, and ISPs have even less incentive to be cautious because theres virtually no competition.
