Lawrence Lessig's (http://www.lessig.org/blog/archives/003606.shtml) blog called my attention to this brief document on Net Neutrality which outlines why it is a Bad Thing (tm) for the online gaming industry.

Having previously worked for Electronic Arts, I can definitely say this is something they should be heavily concerned with as their customers span many, many networks and EA is peered in many, many places with first and second teir carriers. EA's operating cost will increase. The only place for this to travel is downward: both to the consumers and employees. For smaller companies, this will make independent innovation much more difficult; small companies making massively multiplayer games or communities will, effectively, have their choice of self publishing (even if few self distribute any longer) removed. Welcome to large(r) software houses.
