But is not only P2P thats going to be affected ....

"One reason ISPs like doing this, is to encourage their customers to use the company's own VoIP system, rather than a rival's. If the packet is void, and is detected as from the cable company's own product, it is optimised - sent through faster than normal. Other packets are allowed to take their place in what's left of the queue"

from page 2 of the Reg article

So much for being content agnostic ?
