I'm a little worried about this. What's going to stop, e.g., a low-ranked provider from prioritizing Netflix packets above other packets? This seems like an unintentional network-neutrality backdoor of sorts.


Netflix actually wants low ranked service provider to agree to host edge caches for netflix's multi-service CDN, which saves them power and transit and lets them charge others to get on there.
