I generally get upgraded to FC on the legs that have DTV, but it would be nice to have when I get stuck in Y.
I agree that this would be a great benefit, particularly on redeye transcons where it's not worth $6 to pay for the full flight, but it might be nice to have some entertainment at the beginning/end of the flight. Sadly, I don't forsee LiveTV wanting to give up the potential revenue from all of those Elites.
