One Free-To-Air channel on one of the Astra 2 birds (28.2E) or Eurobird 1 (28.5E) would cover the whole of Europe and keep me happy too. Maybe they could encourage ESA and RSA (Roscosmos? RSC Energia?) to do likewise. (ESA seems to have discontinued their TV service, no big surprise).

You could try sending a note to the NASA Public Affairs Office to suggest it!
I get NASA TV via Dish Network. As far as I know, they are the only public carrier that has it.
