Re: A proposal said by Joe12345678:You can't make it free as you need to pay something for the line costs (pays for cable techs and costs of running cable) and basic and the price of HSI only vs HSI + basic is just about the same. May force it to be a max of $10-$15 need for lines even phone or HSI only and have come with (full OTA) in clear QAM + 2 free DTA for analog tv's. DBS needs to cover the price of running the sat's. Even if locals do charge, cable companies can make it free, they simply must make up the price elsewhere. For example, that locals are free makes it more likely that I will forgo the antenna and hook up to cable. Being hooked up to cable makes it more likely that I will subscribe to monthly service and/or order PPV. That's just good marketing, and it's worth something.
(I don't believe locals should charge, however.)
