Pay television arrives as industry debates viability
The Pay TV push, debated at a recent convention, shows a few dozen communities already receiving service while promoters forecast rapid expansion. Industry leaders say early trials failed to attract broad audiences but believe a profitable niche exists with pay movies and live events.

Prices range from monthly fees to per program charges, complicating consumer adoption.
