Sure? Until they figure out how to further exploit it to their advantage.

Pretend ice cream stores gave away free milkshakes. But you had to buy a straw to drink them. But that's okay, because you still get free milkshakes. One day you're drinking a free milkshake and you look down and the guy that sold you the straw is pinching it almost shut. You can still get your milkshake, but it's really hard and takes a lot longer.
So you say, "Hey! Stop that!" And the straw guy says, "NO! Not until the ice cream store pays me money."

And you say, "But I already paid you money for the straw." And the straw guy says, "I don't care. I just want more money."

You don't think it's fair to point out Netflix did all this strictly for their own selfish reasons?

Wheeler’s description of how this will play out is flawed but also instructive. “We don’t really know. We don’t know where things go next,” he said, according to The New York Times. “We have created a playing field where there are known rules, and the F.C.C. will sit there as a referee and will throw the flag.”

On the contrary, under the standard set by the order, the FCC isn’t enforcing known rules; it is roaming the field making the rules up on the spot. Imagine a game in which the referee was authorized to throw a flag for “unjust” or “unreasonable” conduct any time players attempted a new strategy or innovative style of play. Players might have some general sense of what would trigger a ref’s particular sensibility, but wouldn’t ever know for sure.

As a result, you’d expect two things to happen: Players would deploy new moves more cautiously, and teams would spend more time pressuring the refs to use their wide discretion to allow certain types of plays—probably while arguing that their opponents’ signature plays were out of bounds.

This is more or less what to expect in the wake of the FCC’s rules: ISPs will probably invest and innovate more cautiously, knowing that the FCC has veto power over their decisions. And armies of expensive telecom lawyers will spend their days arguing about what, exactly, constitutes “just and reasonable” in a wide variety of circumstances.

So FCC's net neutrality will fix my exorbitant Comcast bill?

. . . switching to streaming content from non Comcast services.

Speed is all on the quality and type of connection you pay for. Hulu, Netflix,Amazon, Google and more offer tons of streaming content . Depends on what you are after.
