The way I read it, though maybe wrong, is shaping the traffic such that one would have to pay a premium for premium sites. Meaning if the ISP decided that a site I visit often such as slashdot were a premium site would I have to pay more to have those pages load quickly. That gives the ISP's a lot of control over who has a voice on the internet and who does not. I'm not sure I'm ok with that. I am ok with the idea of paying for service levels but not with content discrimination.
