With a majority of viewers watching OTA via cable or satellite, why are 
we worried about this?

We've allowed cable and satellite to replace our transmitters to the 
point where they (cable and satellite) are wanting direct, raw, 
un-compressed feeds so they can provide the best signal for their 
subscribers.

We've missed the boat here, and there may not be another one available.  
It's just a matter of time before broadcasters are either made 
irrelevant or we retake the leadership role in video communications.
