And who's your Internet provider in that scenario? Do we think Comcast
won't start slowing down Hulu to folks who stop subscribing to the TV
services but allow it at full speed, or higher speeds, to those who
do? They know who you are, and they know how much money you are paying
them.

Sort of tongue in cheek, and sort of not - The next step is Comcast
blocking access to Google searches for web sites that provide
competing products. Remind you of anyone? ;-)
