"freeriding" is a ridiculous concept. How about we call what the ISPs do "middlemanning". Why would someone pay for internet from an ISP if not to access these types of services? You think we pay $60/month just to have an IP address? Fundamentally, customers wouldn't pay for broadband if it weren't for these "bandwidth hogging" applications. So who's stealing value here? If you don't want to peer fine, pay your upstream provider's transit rates. Or better yet cut off service to any webpage that requires more than 100kb to load. I'm sure your customers will be happy to keep paying you for nothing.
