From my understanding, it is ComCast this time, not the developer. TV had a contract with Comcast to try using the system online with Comcast. TV paid the fee. I've heard variouis rumors from Comcast inisted on a very hefty new contract to the original agreement stated that once the first year was up, it would be up to subscribers. I don't which is true. Either way, the contract with Comcast is up and the developer did not renew it, so the cost is now on the consumer. I'd suggest people write both the devleoper and Comcast about this. Those who are Comcast subscribers might be able to get the fee removed. Can't hurt to try.
