Netflix is a bandwidth hog

So you think you only have to pay $9/month for Netflix? No, the price has gone up to $10. And probably it will go up soon.

Why? Because Netflix is clogging up the internet bandwidth, and somebody should pay more. And that somebody could be you.

The amount of video watched online has nearly doubled in a year, to 15.1 hours per user per month, according to this article.
