Let us not try and make this a regulatory or policy issue what with theorizing the pros and cons. Incumbent broadcasters are about to be stuck with millions worth of obsolete equipment and a cartel that will be worthless soon enough. it is this investment that they are fighting to maintain a stranglehold on the industry. Its a commercial issue plain and simple. I would be amused if the CCK was to hold its ground and find other stations to fill the incumbents shoes. Nobody is indispensable.
