I do not think there will be a charge yet for video streaming but a few years from now yes. A few months back a federal appeals court struck down an FCC rule that required broadband providers to treat all internet content alike. Cable and phone companies feel Netflix, Amazon, etc. should pay more to transmit content (video, movies). If that happens the cost will be passed on to the consumer.
