Best i can tell, it is the national broadcasters that keep them in operation because they don't have to consider ad revenue. USA do not have anything like that, so it would not surprise me that their channels wants to phase it out (or forgo implementing it in the first place).



I don't know about the regular teletext menu, but in my country the broadcasters (public and private) are required to have teletext subtitles on page 888 in much of their programming, for accessibility reasons.
