>Verizon have to subsidize their costs of business

I don't see that argument going very far. Netflix has an ISP and pays for their own bandwidth. Why should they pay twice for their bandwidth?

If verizon has a problem with the amount of data their customers are requesting from netflix they could always disallow that or institute data caps etc.

Yep, I still don't understand why land line ISPs don't charge by the MB like cell services do.
