ABC, NBC, CBS, etc. sell access to their content to Comcast and the like, probably for a high price. Comcast then sells the content to their subscribers and unless the customer pays extra for High Def, they get an inferior transmission to that by antenna which is in high def. At least that's the way it was when we had Comcast for TV. Maybe the courts ought to look into the practice of broadcasters selling "free" content, period.

Please explain. Why shouldn't ABC, CBS, NBC, and Fox be able to sell their copyrighted content to Comcast for resale to Comcast customers? Why should the courts get involved?
