BC Lottery tried to do the same things - stupid if you ask me, it didn't exactly go over well in the public for them...

It sounds like a good idea to offer media since they apparently have a large amount of customers riding their trains. Give them something to do to make their ride more pleasurable, make them want it, then make them pay for it.
However, the idea that they could do it themselves is a bit asinine. They're being greedy and will pay for it in the end. They should be striking a deal with a provider instead of trying to build it themselves.
