Oh Canada!
Yeah, I work about 10 miles from the border (Detroit River).

"You'd pay for content."

YES! You GET IT! The "internet" will be replaced by the FREE "mesh". You will be able to do everything that you do today on the internet - without paying for access.

The STREAMING Paradigm the goes along with the WiMAX steamroller says that broadcast is DEAD and streaming is the end-all, be-all. You WOULD have to pay to access CONTENT! This will make the RIAA and MPAA happy - because they are the content owners!

You would access movies, music, whatever through a web portal - and receive streaming content. You COULD get it for "free", but commercials would be embedded in the stream (just like TV and radio today). If you PAID, you would get less (or MAYBE no) commercials - JUST like "cable". But since a web portal can be ANYWHERE, they would need to COMPETE for your dollar - and THAT'S the true beauty of it all!
