Ah, but this just may be enough
If the FCC decides that it is in the consumers' interest to preserve the only real HDTV competitor (Voom), this will throw a wrench in Charlie's plan.
The Big Two (D* and E*) have clearly been reluctant to invest in HDTV and without serious competition will likely remain so for the foreseeable future (but will keep making vague promises about leading the way to 500+ HD channels).
I hope the FCC is as serious about letting the consumer be able to see HDTV, as it is about preventing us from seeing JJ's nipple.
