Those particular us channels were never interested in licensing to another country as they are somewhat localized
Eg nbc south Florida
So even though Bernard himself report the local cable providers many times they never take it on.
He always battle against the cable providers as he was the local directtv provider.
The movie channels licenses were sorted out a long time ago but they also broadcast them locally illegally for a long time in the early days of local cable.
Bernard was never a popular fella in the local broadcast circles against the cable providers
Not to mention directtv was owned by tv6 who used to buy rights for many shows and cause blackouts on cable.
He finally win them but the original cable providers have all exited the business a long time ago.
