Look at it from another point of view. In certain countries instead of channels going off air like they do in the uk, they cease to exist and reappear again when they are needed. This normally happens where there is a HD channel as well as SD for the same station. For people in these areas it was playing havoc with their schedules etc because stations kept appearing and disappearing. Better to have the slight inconvienience of a rescan every now and then, than break things every night :-) FWIW. Most set top boxes these days don't explicitly rescan, some notice and ask first.
