There won't be a "new" slow lane. They'll just let the existing 'free' lane continue to get more and more congested, and move everybody who pays to the new 'fast lane'. Which effectively means that anybody who doesn't pay, whether they're publishing a single page view per month or thousands of gigabytes of videos, will be sharing the slow lane. The only reason the slow lane would be expanded is to keep its overall performance at the minimum level necessary to keep customers from switching to a different ISP.
