 All these worst case scenarios very unlikely

Playing "devils advocate" here, I just don't see all these worst case scenarios ever happening. Extra charges and favored content are not going to be an issue, especially with "network neutrality" being such a big deal with the FCC and Congress.

The only thing I see as possible(and even this is unlikely initially) is that P4P systems will try and prevent the violation of copyrighted material. Something built by and for the ISPs may not want to encourage or make easier the trading of pirated files.

Most of the worries are just the nightmares of the anti-corporate paranoids.
