Not quite, and here's the problem. It would be like Amazon sending a package to FedEx and then FedEx hands off to UPS who then hands it off to the customer. So what happens when UPS can't handle the the number of packages it's receiving from FedEx? That's what Comcast is complaining about. The Internet does breed strange bedfellows when you are using your competitor to deliver your product. The other solution is for Netflix to buy a Comcast circuit.
Except UPS has no problem with the load. The only problem is the undersized handoff station.

No, it'd be UPS charging Amazon an extra fee to deliver the box, on top of what they already collected in the beginning to ship it. Netflix already paid someone to get their streams online.

Last time I checked, Netflix offers zero live programming, so they aren't an actual competitor of Comcast.
Movie channels don't offer live programming, either.
