If a latency-sensitive service decides to host closer to part of its customer base, does that mean they're not respecting net neutrality too? At what point does something stop becoming more convenient for customers and the company (like locally hosted unmetered traffic) and start becoming a neutrality issue?
Maybe I look at it differently being from a country that has always had caps, where the introduction of peering agreements and ISP hosted content meant you got more value (all downloads being 'paid for' to some of that now being 'free'). I suppose if you look at it from the perspective of going from a culture of unlimited data to capped downloads (all downloads being 'free' to most being 'paid for' and some free as it was before).
It's not like they are artificially prioritizing their own content.
Edit: On reading some of the other comments it sounds like it isn't just the same content via different clients, it's actually buying the same content off Comcast? Is this the case? The OP wasn't exactly a wealth of detail.
