I suspect thet they want people to get used to having the ability to watch 2 channels simultaneously in different rooms. So much so that they won't want to give it up after 12 months.
This gives a continuing revenue stream, using an old STB that they would otherwise have no great use for. The first year probably pays the cost of the STB. After that it's pure profit.
