Based on what I read there, this isn't true, there are Free-to-air channels
broadcast in dvb-s on the DBS satellites.  Not very many, and they are
not that interesting, and the number of any given satellite are small
so you would need to be able to move from satellite to satellite to
make any decent use.  So to me it just didn't seem worth it.
