Re: Likely?

uhhh, that was exactly my point. We had (actually, still have) free BROADCAST television, but most choose to pay for additional channels....

No such thing as Free BROADCAST TV

The amount of money spent on advertising over "Free" Broadcast TV adds over $600/year to the cost of living per capita in the U.S. via increased prices for goods purchased.
Have you ever seen a "Free" Broadcast TV station facility?
They didn't pull the constuction/operation money out of a hat.
