I don't know. Getting something in orbit isn't too expensive, but there is only a few people who do it, and there is a big legislative bottleneck. Easy to compute trajectories and everything makes orbits easy to track, and hard to put up. Whereas trying to float many serves in the atmosphere, that sounds much more interesting and exciting to me. Dealing with wind currents is much more complicated than having to control an orbit trajectory anyways.
