Speaking of *satellite* :-)

I hear one can get the current 50 megs of news a day via satellite, although
I don't know how you send news out. It would seem to me though that you
could send news out via telephone since this would be low bandwidth for
most home systems.

I also heard some cable company was doing netnews on one channel. Can anyone
confirm, expand, deny, or flame me to death on any of these items?
