Meaning.... If you use that ISP and you use Netflix to stream movies, you might not be able to because that ISP prefers YouTube over Netflix.

No one is going to pay more to use one project. In fact, just the opposite - this protect us from an ISP saying "You use Hulu and we throttle Hulu users, so if you want to use Hulu you have to pay us extra".
So if someone is listening to Spotify all day long, every day right now and their ISP offers data-free access to Spotify, you are saying NN is going to change nothing for that user?
