RM, I may be wrong,but while your logic makes sense to me, I seem to feel that your numbers are off... either that or I've got to brush up on my MPEG.

>> That bandwidth has to be divided among 100+TV channels, which takes 100-500Kbps each, depending on the level of MPEG compression. <<

I'd have thought that, depending on what kind of content was being aired, the "compressed" data rates would have been in the range between 0.7 Mbps and 6.3 Mbps to approximate "broadcast quality" or NTSC-grade (or better) video.

Maybe I'm thinking baseband, unoptimized, here. Please advise. Thanks.
