So you don't think the money content providers will pay Comcast won't 
reflect on other eyeball networks who aren't important/large enough to 
request financing? ie, Comcast could run lower rates and offer better 
service by charging the content provider, while competitive eyeball 
networks won't get the option to receive compensation from content 
providers and have to charge appropriate rates to their customers.
