Not only does 90% of the US subscribe to cable but even if universal over the air service was deemed necessary it would be much more efficient to utilize satellite TV (e.g. like DIRECTTV)

I wish I could be as hopeful as you, Hance. But, the white spaces roll out is at least 2 years away, after NAB and others exstinguish their due process channels.

When you have people like Moby making the pitch for NN, and it being entirely acceptable to those on Capitol Hill - you know we've left the land of reason to some distopian wonderland.

The only thing that may slow down NN is the fundraising possibilities - if Congress grant's a quick win to Ben Scott, George Soros et al, they won't get large off of PAC contributions.
