The FCC knew it would not work. I think the FCC has been in the business of
putting TV Broadcasting out of business for a long time. Reed Hundt made it
clear that is what he has been trying to do for almost 2 decades...

The broadcasters choose a broadcast system that does not work for most New
Yorkers. Now they are offered a chance to receive OTA broadcast on their own
rented antenna and record device which is then sent by a third party to them
over the Internet. Once they have received it legally on their equipment it
seems it is theirs to have sent to themselves.
I think they might just win. Especially with the reception problems in NYC and
the broadcasters attitude toward the broadcast modulation being used. I would
love to be a witness for them about the origins of the problem and broadcasters
attitudes toward reception problems from the beginning. it could be argued that
broadcasters benefit from bad reception when they get paid for their content in
New York city.

Yes but with merit?
Cable companies set up remote antennas and sold access in their beginning.
