I think what your both actually alluding to is SDV ?

Although I 'm still a tad confused about the "future part and the obscene additional bandwidth"?

Unfortunately as stated previously VM don't seem to have gone the MTA chipset route which must mean they don't feel an immediate (as in next 3-5yrs) need to free up any downstream TV frequencies using that method?
