Cable companies and telephone companies are in a head-to-head battle for customers.
Each side realizes the folly of discriminating on the basis of content, so there are absolutely no such limitations. One can obtain the same internet content regardless of the provider.
The only distinction is that customers may choose the bandwidth they desire and can reasonably afford. Both cable companies and telephone companies must be careful to allocate bandwidth in their respective networks. Telecommunications firms simply cannot allocate the financial resources to expand networks to provide the same bandwidth to everyone all at once. To do so would essentially drive them into insolvency. To maintain profitability, they must increase bandwidth incrementally.
