Disney is working with National Datacast, a subsidiary of PBS, to procure
digital ATSC data bits from PBS Member stations. And of course ABC also has
leverage with it's network affiliates and O&Os to continue MovieBeam on
ATSC. MovieBeam has a plan to stay in business post-NTSC. We shall see if
it ever makes economic sense to do so.

Look this Disney's press release:

Sounds very strange, isn't?
Moviebeam operates in dNTSC and "the big switch" knocks the doors...
