I probably have posted this here before, but will probably post it several more times as the opportunity presents itself.
In reaching the conclusion that the cable franchise is not a license, we begin with the hornbook definition of a license:
A permit, granted by an appropriate governmental body, generally for a consideration, to a person, firm, or corporation to pursue some occupation or to carry on some business subject to regulation under the police power. A license is not a contract between the state and the licensee, but is a mere personal permit.

Supreme Court of Indiana
Good stuff there.
