iBlast solves the distribution dilemma by broadcasting digital content from local TV stations.

The television broadcasting stations are under a 1996 Federal mandate to convert their systems to a new digital standard (ATSC). This digital standard allows local television stations to broadcast conventional programming, high- definition digital television, and data. In recent years, television stations across the nation have been upgrading their facilities to the digital standard. Already, almost 500 television stations in the U.S. have converted their equipment to the digital standard, reaching more than 90% of all U.S. TV households. Within the iBlast network, TV stations reaching 62 million households are already broadcasting a digital signal. And these numbers are growing every day.
