You can't argue that the toll isn't getting paid. Comcast has never been accused of giving people internet for free.

Why can't Comcast, or a road owner, charge everyone who is using that road? You and the content provider are both using the road. You pay for access to the road and the content provider pays for moving their product along the road, no?
A toll may be getting paid, but it may not be the toll that Comcast wants. The way to potentially reduce the toll while improving service is likely doing things that get some more competition, rather than saying you can't take toll.
