Corporate Scumbags Having A HIssy Fit

Netflix isn't a consumer, Comcast's customers are - and their customers do pay for the bandwidth. Netflix is a peer.

Comcast could add the necessary bandwidth at no cost - their upstream provider has offered to install the necessary hardware, and the uplink is literally a cross-connect between cabinets in the same data center.

Comcast wants the ability to double-dip - charging both end-users.
