Elect a congresscritter that will pass a true Net Neutrality bill

Your service provider is a TV service, so to keep you from watching Netflix and just passing the bits along they change the network based on what content, etc.

I am not an expert by any means, but an HD episode of anything will be greater than 250GB. I've also never heard of getting that sort of bandwidth (40mbps) over copper...you'd need cable or fiber to do that.
A regular DVD that is as full as the spec says it can be is 8.4gb. Blu Ray is 4x that or so, so 250gb will let you do a few movies per month... and not much else.
