This whole boondoggle of digital TV has to to with advertising space, not an increased amount of content. I have cable with about 90 channels. 15 of them are nothing but ads, 15 are news or government a half dozen actually have new content and the rest are a mix of old movies and reruns of old TV shows. All still have 10-20 minutes of ads in every hour. If they put 100 more channels up they will still have about the same amount of new content but they can sell a couple thousand extra minutes of ads each hour.
Personally I hope internet 'content on demand' puts the whole bunch if trouser snakes out of business.
