Re: What's up with ABC?

Its not me they need to laugh at,,its their investors and
backers,,,and laugh at them and your off the air,,,

This is the only model that OTA broadcasters can follow and hope to
survive financially,,,,

The world is not run by technology, its run by profit and lose.

Thats very nice, so what does it have to do with what I said,,?

They will SELL the HD done at that studio to the Sat and Cable feeds,
and send you SD OTA,

You will get to see all David Lettermans wrinkles and nose hairs on
your pay cable or Sat dish service,,,,in glorious HD.

They are not doing this to service a 3 percent market share,,,,,

OTA, after 2009, you are going to be getting SD, or maybe wide screen
SD,,,,plus 4 sub channels. There is no mandate, nor any money to be
made, for OTA broadcasters to send out a single HD channel, when they
can send out 5 SD channels. That was the "carrot" for them to convert
to digital modulation.

I think that any of about 10,000 broadcasting executives across the country
would laugh right in your face.
