Content is the issue I agree.

What more reason to allow local broadcasting be given control to the locals.

Public like Youtube airwaves would rock. Today that cant happen and McCains bill will allow it.

Forcing cable/Sat companies to price per channel will make customers able to choose. Thats it in a nutshell.

You will end up with three networks again.

Even now you see the “channels” like Netflix and Amazon begin to develop their own programming.

Cable TV is moving away from the TV side to being simnply the conduit. Left alone, in ten years there will be no “channels.” Everything will be “on demand” and through the internet.

This is an example of dinosaurs fighting over the last pieces of food on the plains. They don’t realize the reason that they are so hungry is that the world has changed around them.
