Replace lost network channels

Sometimes, access to local channels is limited because satellite companies and local network stations have not reached a contractual agreement over the retransmission fee. In areas like this, satellite providers will transmit network television broadcasts from other, more distant cities so consumers still have access to nationwide network programming.

When Directv can't come to contractual agreements with local network stations why aren't we eligible to receive ABC, CBS, Fox and NBC from New York or Los Angeles via your Distant Network Services?
