No corporation pays their fair share. Those costs get passed to the consumer regardless of who is charging whom. As an end user I pay my ISP for a connection to the internet with the expectation to reach all sites equally. An ISP deciding to throttle one of the sites I want to reach is not equal. I can also point out that due to the monopolization of service franchises many ISPs never invested in their infrastructure until they were absolutely forced to and then they did the minimum. So while end user demands have increased the ISPs share culpability for the capacity problems as well. Now I'm of the opinion it is the ISP company shareholders that should pay the cost for the ISP share not the end users or content providers yet the big ISPs seem to think it should be me paying for all.
