Oh, one other thing I just thought about.
On an individual program basis, syndicated programs such as Oprah and Judge
Judy have commercials in them, yet they still charge TV stations a fee for
the rights to air those programs.
If each individual program could sustain itself with just the included
spots, then why charge a syndication fee at all?
It's all about aggregating revenue from several sources.

Yet somehow, broadcasters have managed to thrive for decades without the
"found money" from retransmission consent fees.
