Competitive threat?

"It's doubtful that the provisions will placate NAB, who've been very vocal opponents of the plans because of the possible competitive threat posed by a new content delivery mechanism."

Hmmm...I don't see "competition" listed anywhere there. Just interference issues.

While you may be right, it's your opinion, and not fact. Yet.

Re: Competitive threat?

It seems to have become dogma among people that if an entrenched group of any type opposes something, it's because of fear of competition...

From what I've read of the current state of the TV industry, they seem to be floating in their own little bubble-world, where internet video isn't going to affect TV viewership, a world where (this was an actual claim of NBC) a DVR sped up ad is just as effective as watching the full thing.
