I think (just me perhaps...) that a real advantage for ISDB-T is that in "the transition", every Broadcaster in Sao Paulo can get a 'slice' of spectrum. There is not enough spectrum for a '6MHZ (analog) + 6MHz (digital)' allocation. There is (I believe) enough for a roughly '6MHz (analog) + 3MHz (digital)' in the interum, providing a way to get a full 6MHz in the future (politics willing). Just my observation, having at one point of my life spent some time there and debating exactly this (and other) issues.
