Bad idea and a good way to lose subscribers. A lot of people have TV's that don't do HDCP (meaning they also can't use HD players) and would as mentioned above instantly drop their service if they can't even get HD content. Next with the losses the rates will have to go up or DISH and any other company that does this will see a lot of investors pull out if they don't and see severely diminished returns and even more subscribers will pull the plug. Don't forget your customers are the reason you exist.
