For broadcasters, it is all about broadcast and distribution rights.

Take for an example, if FOX lets anyone from around the world watch American
Idol online, there is no reason for Global (here in Canada) to pay huge sums
of money to license the content for broadcast if we can watch it on the web
on FOX. So Global pays for the rights to broadcast it on TV and online.

Geofencing is all about the money.
