Not in major markets, anyway. With the government taking away channels 52+, there's very little space available in the spectrum allocated to TV channels. 6MHz gaps? No such thing; some channels are on adjacent allocations already.

What about rural areas like where I live. Now I live in a small city so I can get broadband, but friends that live a few miles out only have dial-up. If I was wanting to start an ISP it seems that I would tap into a underserved market like rual areas than try to compete in a market where most of the people who want broadband already have it and aren't likely to switch.
