I clearly remember Destruct TV's Broadband plan before.
...and it failed!

I would like to see the rest of the world get broadband. If this is the way, just don't let it screw up local AM/FM broadcasts.

Cleveland, OH		 they had DirecTV DSL but that was not under Liberty Media. They do have Wi-Fi with a partnership with Eartlink

I think what you are saying is that BPL will wipe out AM radio reception but I'm not clear when you mention FM.
FM radio for broadcast purpose starts around 87 Mhz. I think the highest I've heard for BPL was 54 Mhz.
So FM radio should not be a problem!
But, BPL is a problem! I actually enjoy being able to listen to broadcasts from other countries on the HF or SW bands which BPL will surely destroy.
No, I'm not an amateur (HAM) operator but I know radio.
HF/SW is a proven way of communication all the way around this screwed up world. Show me a cell phone that can talk around the world without any infrastructure and I'll give you a dollar!
