Those fees are on top of the $60/month for internet. Regular internet of course being limited to 512kbps and 1GB/month ($25 per each additional gigabyte).
It's coming too, because it is a great deal for ISPs (more money! Huge kickbacks for the senior management!), and a great deal for megacorp incumbent media companies who don't have to worry about any of those pesky upstarts screwing up their monopolistic business models. No more Netflix like services appearing and eating your lunch, you can effectively cut them off at the ISP.
