"Where support appears to be growing is on the station ownership group level, where Pearl, a partnership comprising eight major station groups: Gannett, Hearst, Cox, Scripps, Graham Media, Meredith, Raycom and Media General, is actively involved with others in the system development. Pearl represents TV stations in 43 of the top 50 U.S. markets"

There will be resistance, but it's enevitable. ATSC 3.0 is a "catch up" to streaming and physical storage devices. It will keep broadcast TV competitive. I think it will take longer then 5 years though.

NHK of Japan is working hard to leap frog everyone and roll out 8K television in time for their 2020 Olympics. They already successfully tested and transmitted the 2012 Olympics in London.
