I mentioned this in another thread about piracy. Eventually the companies the produce/sell content and the companies that control the bandwidth will have the same interests. Either through mergers or other deals. Even Google will eventually buddy up with some giant media company one day and I bet as soon as they do you will stop seeing torrent links for that companies property on Google.
Multi billion dollar companies usually get what they want, good or bad, especially when they team up.
But what I see is basically a system where if you are consuming content that makes money for Comcast or whoever, they will subsidize the BW, if not, they will restrict it or make it so that it costs more to pay the BW bill for filesharing as opposed to just buying the content legally.
