SBS in Sydney carries The News Hour with Jim Lehrer and independent radio station carries Democracy Now with Amy Goodman and a few NPR shows .. not to mention the best, most authentic roots reggae show you ever heard!

That's just it. The content owners don't want to lose that revenue stream from regional networks by giving it away for free (ad supported) For now the regional networks/providers are willing to pay more than ad revenue can generate. This is one of the areas Hulu could succeed with a paid subscription model.
