Will 600MHz affect the future of 4K over-the-air broadcast?

DC's music radio stations are really awful.  But I can receive WIYY from Baltimore in most places I go frequently, and that's where my FM radio stays pretty much the entire time I'm in the car, if I want music.  Otherwise, WTOP.

Some of the shows on MTV, FX, USA or The CW are only viewable in a timely fashion if you have a current cable subscription. 

The CW? Are you into Vampire Diaries or maybe catching up on missed episodes of One Tree Hill or Dawson's Creek?

 

I kid, my wife has made me watch many of those shows. I usually get out of it by asking a ton of questions and she makes me leave. Lol

I rarely connect the bluetooth in my car. Leaving it on on my phone all day kills the battery, and I just don't feel like switching it on and off every time I get in the car. Inevitably I'll forget to turn it off and have a dead battery when I really need it. So, it's FM radio for me unless I'm on a longer trip. I watch a lot of TV shows, not just on my station. Mostly via DVR since I work in the evenings. I suppose I could see many of them on Hulu or other sources, but again, it's not worth the hassle for me. Some of the shows on MTV, FX, USA or The CW are only viewable in a timely fashion if you have a current cable subscription.

You'd be surprised at how efficient Bluetooth has become. It's not as big of a battery drain as leaving your WiFi on. It's become quite efficient, especially after 4.0

This is not an issue of the past, this is current with my G4. On any given day with normal usage, I get 24-36 hours on a charge. If I leave Bluetooth on, I get maybe... 15? It makes a huge difference, and Bluetooth has been the only differentiating factor.
