I was an HF/VHF/UHF and M/W comms tech 1968-1976, graduated from the North Avenue Trade School in 1980 after I mustered out and became and RF electrical engineer and dealt with all forms of RF up to 220 GHz radars I built thru 2011. Taught RF and antennas for years. The fact is that long haul satellite transmission of media-based material prefers to use fiber because the transit times across the country are less than 40ms and reliabiliiities are much better over fiber ....not so with satellite which gets worse the farther north of the equator you are. Fiber is abundant now.....satellite entertainment media will be dead as soon as the last of the investors can recoup their investments, IMO. The constellation and backup satellites and launch support systems are unbearable...In very early 90s I installed the VERY first directv Dish that came on the market. I have been a Directv service tech since the beginning. I still prefer to keep my internet and satellite service separate. YMMV
I started my career installing C/Ku band satellites. Eventually everything becomes a thing of the past BUT C/Ku/L band are still being used to transmit your internet services. How do I know because I use to fix their (internet providers) satellite systems.
