I don't see the big deal. If the big American media companies get to have their apps preinstalled then I don't see why local channels shouldn't get the same treatment.

My bias is I would never connect my TV to the internet anyway.

Personally I haven't watched traditional TV channels in about a decade. To have it installed on my TV would aggravate me to no end.

I'm still fine with it, but I assume this should apply to GoogleTV/FireTV devices.
