I wouldn't be so sure about that.
An example:
The company I work for pay my broadband bill as does most IT companies.
Now my broadband provider is also my TV provider. They have of course noted this so guess what: they kept sliding the split between broadband and TV cost until it was ridiculous[1].
Guess what I think will happen if it becomes well known that employers pay for hosting?
Prices will go through the roof.
[1]: That was last year. Last I checked I now pay $0.6 for the broadband and $90 for TV. I haven't figured out why this is but I guess financial incentives at some level.
