I’m not going to argue with ‘there is no free lunch’, but there is one channel we get on digital TV (I’m so out of touch I’m not sure if there is any other kind). For us it’s on 14.3 and I think it’s called GET TV. No commercials, ever. Just old movies back to back.

I’ve wondered who and why that channel is on.

But somebody is paying for it.

Again, no free lunch.

I am guessing that this is a secondary bit of bandwidth that the owner of 14 paid for when they bought spectrum. They make money on 14.1 and use a little bit of that money to buy the (now cheap) old movies to make the whole 14 package more attractive to a cable bundler.

Just out of curosity what's on 14.1?
