It may be their business interests, but it should also be important to everyone else that enjoys the freedoms of the internet. If Cable/ISP's get the ability to favor certain content over others, we'll end up similar to the way that cable tv is setup now. "want access to foxnews.com, nbc.com, bloomberg.com then buy the news and business package.. ohh you also want facebook, myspace and twitter.. then youll also need to buy the social media package".
It would be a disaster and the end of the internet as we know it, McCain tried to pass something similar a while ago called the "internet freedom act", which basically would have taken all the "freedoms" away from the consumers and given them to the ISPs and media companies. Net Neutrality is what gives the internet its power, and the ability to grant freedom of speech.
