Throttling Netflix for PCs?

I consistentlyget at least 35Mbps download speeds from my connection.  It was therefore surprising to notice that I couldn't stream Netlix movies in HD on mylaptop computer.  I onlygot 480 eventhough all the Netflix settings were correct.  As an experiment Idecided to disconnect from Verizon and connect to the internet through my ATT iPhone's hotspot.  I had absolutely no problem  getting HD streaming.  I looked on a few forums online and read that Verizon may be throttling Netflix to push its Redbox service.  Regardless of what the reason behind this is, I will certainly dump Verizon as my ISP if I can't trust their internet neutrality.  Has anybody else had a similar experience?
