Don't worry pay per bit is coming and then you can watch all the Google HD you want.
Then I'll move to another ISP that isn't gouging me.

Because the ISP's also sell things like TV and voice, and get big bucks for them. When Google/YouTube offer things over IP that cannabalize those services, the ISP's want to be compensated with a cut of the action.
