I care because ATSC 3.0 includes AC-4, a proprietary Dolby format. None of my software will play the audio from ATSC 3.0 over the air broadcasts for this reason.

ATSC 3.0 is a government standard for how public airwaves should be used. It strikes me as wrong that the government has basically mandated Dolby licensing for hardware manufacturers and software libraries.
