"Being fed ads was already a form of paying for those costs; they simply changed the currency. Besides, cable had already done that."
Good point about costs. While I can still get free to air and public TV at HD1080, there is no way stupid network TV is better. The problems with patchy Internet access is such that unless you live in an area where cable, fiber is found, you can be stuck with ADSL or Sat speed. The future isn't evenly distributed.
