That's not quite what people are worried about with respect to the ruling, at least as I understand it. There's no general problem with, say, Comcast charging more if you download a Terabyte every month than if you download, say, 50 Gigabytes (i.e. 1/20th as much). But it appears this ruling would allow Comcast to charge X when you interact with, say, microsoft.com sites and 2X when you interact with google.com sites. It also potentially means they can charge more if the data is, say, video or audio related than if it's text related. Not based on how much data is downloaded (although video and audio will almost certainly need more than text to be useful), just that bit A is part of a video while bit B is part of text.
