We have all been through this argument before. The response from the tracks has been silence as usual because they are most likely behind the deal and the horsemen for the most part havent done or said anything. In the end the people in the racing industry in PA are going to get run out of business and racing in this state will die. That of course will effect racing everywhere as even idiot politicians in other states have google and will likely try to copy what will be done here. Maryland is already on shaky grounds from rumblings there and you'd have to be an idiot to think that NY racing is not going to get the shaft soon.
Some people have this vision that there will eventually be just a few tracks left that will beam their signal out to the rest of the world. That will never happen because as soon as the tracks can make money and not have to operate, they will eventually all want to be taking the signal, not giving it.
