Here's a link to a post from VZN's public policy blog, about Netflix.

Yup.
The money quote:
One might wonder why Netflix and its transit providers were the only ones that ran into congestion issues. What it boils down to is this: these other transit and content providers took steps to ensure that there was adequate capacity for their traffic to enter our network.
Translation: if Netflix is paying Comcast, why not pay us(Verizon) ? Rubens
