What I dont get is why the broadcasters arent out there trying to get new customers given their new-found bandwidth. They seem to be all over mobile broadcast, but when it comes to DTV - you just get blank stares and shrugged shoulders.

Because ABC/Disney owns ESPN, Fox owns Fox Sports and Fox News, NBC owns CNBC and MSNBC, and CBS owns Showtime, and through it's parent corporation National Amusements still has ties to all of the Viacom channels including the MTV networks.

Given that, what incentive do the national networks have in luring viewers away from DBS/Cable?
