So... broadcasting takes another hit... the lack of a must carry subchannel rule will eventually kill off broadcasting... We will lose free TV.

What we need right now is to add lots of antennas and stop paying the cable and satellite co's to give us what usually arrives for free at our homes.

If you want to see the cable and sat co's give you better prices... put up an antenna and cancel the subscription. If enough of us do this... we could get much better service for better prices.

And think what the $100 per month would do to your budget.

Think what the smaller number of channels would do to your free time...

If we don't preserve free broadcast OTA TV the cable and sat co's will recompress it to death and make our HD sets worth less.
