That seems unlikely. The ideal customer for Comcast, et al is one who pays for the top tier, world class speeds and then checks their email. The margins on that customer are fantastic and any outage is unlikely to be detected.

A paid placement from Comcast is more likely to talk about how much better Netflix is without the occasional freeze or how better movies movies are in HD.

Is it? You have another 5 dollar price increase but your service level is still "good enough" according to the article. Certainly not worth doing anything about it.
