#2  Speech isn't free if you aren't allowed to broadcast it. The press isn't free if you can't own a printing press. Religion isn't free if a congregation can't own the building in which it prays or the land upon which that building sits.

Property rights are the underlying foundation of human rights.

#1  In the never ending expansion of the power of the Central government via the Commerce Clause, the court could come up with the opinion that while the 1st Amendment protects the free speech to offer such channels, the Clause authorizes the government to ban any monetary compensation to see it. Real 'free' speech.
