That's an interesting way to look at it, but I would frame the issue in a different way. It's unlikely Comcast would pass on the savings to their customers. It's more likely that they would charge their customers more for accessing the other services that are not hosted in their closets. Then that becomes the scenario that so many people are worried about where big companies who can negotiate deals with Comcast have a huge competitive advantage over smaller competitors who might not be able to negotiate the same deals.

It's not unlikely, actually, the probability is 100% because they just did. Customer's quota didn't change but Xfinity app usage doesn't count against it.
