Comcast gets paid IN 3 WAYS FOR THE SAME CONTENT, AT LEAST. 1. They get tax money to subsidize their infrastructure costs.

2. They sell the utility their infrastructure provides.

3. They sell the ability for content creators to create content, that they again sell to their users.

They get paid to build a distribution channel, and then charge people the ability to create and distribute content through their stream, then charge for the content. Also, they have no competitors.
