It'll certainly bring broadband to remote areas however the problem satellite faces is that there is finite bandwidth shared among users - similar to a 4G mast.

Existing "affordable" satellite broadband packages come with bandwidth caps for this very reason. While th average internet user may not hit these caps a few hours of 4K will.

It's also somewhat counterintuitive to replace satellite television with... satellite television.
