Comcast can now charge its customers only for upkeep of its network and use the income they get as an "end point delivery network" to offset customer cost. Comcast's cost, which are upkeep and expansion of its physical network, now scale proportionally with its customer base.
The problem with your layout is that, as a netflix user, I pay more to netflix so that you can have their service over comcast, and my provider doesn't get income from the netflix streams as it is sub 100k users (so I still have to pay for my provider's upgrades to handle the netflix which percentage wise will be higher than comcast due to less ideal bandwidth discounts and the locality which may even drive up the overall percentage of netflix streams per customer base).
