TV Poised for New Golden Age with Mobile

[Commentary] The announcement by the Mobile Content Venture that at least 40 NBC and Fox owned and operated television stations and affiliates will start broadcasting ad-supported mobile TV service next year is the first step in moving broadcast TV into what promises to be a revolutionary and profitable future.

And perhaps now, the FCC will start to realize that there are more better ways to serve consumers and more efficient uses for TV spectrum than just handing it all over to broadband.
