How do we obsolete broadcast TV in the U.S.?

It's trivially easy. In my home, it has all but already happened. Don't confuse
the non-technical use of the word with the technical use, though. You seem to
do this a lot.

Unfortunately there is nothing standards and extensible hardware
can do about the content oligopoly,

There absolutely is! CBS All Access proves it. HBO Now proves it. Sling TV
proves it. When you have the general purpose, 2-way, neutral infrastructure in
place, you so-called oligopoly of content owners begin behaving a lot more like
competing companies.
