I'd say it can happen for purely economic reasons. For instance, in
France, some ISPs used to have marketing agreements with Dailymotion and
consequently slowed down Youtube access.

Another exemple is the will to forbid VoIP on 3G connections in order to
force people to continue using the old GSM thingy (also happening in
France afaik).
