If the FCC would stick to it's stated policy and rule against them for blocking, that would open the way for the company's and customer's affected by the blocking to receive damage awards.

In a 'true' open market with competition, their rates would go up, and customers would leave to go to a competitor (eg. AT&T/Verizon)
Since there isn't any 'real' competition, rates will go up for Comcast, and their competitors will raise rates as well, and make more profits.
