      Unfortunately this is going to leave a lot of rural customers in the dark. Poor Internet connection and drm TV. Guess who will control everything they see and hear?

        Sounds like an opportunity for someone to establish “el paquete” for those communities. Probably could even get reasonable financial support from the community out of it.
