I hate paying for cable TV... And I've toyed with the idea of just
watching free over the air television.


But then I think, can I really live without CNN, Speed Channel, Scifi
and History Channel? *It’s a tough choice and I guess not..


If I could find this content on free TV, I'd give up cable at once!


Hello this is what's missing from HD radio! *Playing more of the same
hits or simulating news talk on HD is a waste and doesn’t motivate me
to buy another radio..


I'm stuck with cable tv because I can't find the content I want
anyplace else..
If HD broadcasters offered content worthwhile and not found anyplace
else i;d have to buy HD..
I mean content that everyone is raving about and has self generating
buzz.


HDTV Stations need to think about becoming
24/7 Streaming Web[TV]Casters and turn every
Home PC in to a Streaming Web[TV] Receiver.
Same goes for all the Cable & Dish TV Channels.
1 - Local 24/7 Over-the-Air TV
2 - Network 24/7 Cable TV
3 - Network 24/7 Satellite TV
4 - WebTV via the Home PC and Internet
delivering both Local nd Network 24/7 TV.

If the USA did this and other Nations followed
then eventually you could pick-up any TV
Station 24/7 on the Web via your Home PC on
the Internet. - now that would be 'content' ~ RHF

It's already a reality. Flat screen Tv's are being built to surf the
web.
Like the home phone is being replaced by cell service, cable tv is on
it's way out too.
