One backend could theoretically do it, but you'd probably need more to 
just host the tuner cards.

You'd need one tuner for every tv that would be displaying live tv at 
any given time.

You'd also need redistribution rights from the broadcasters, which I 
believe would mean that you'd need a c-band dish so you can work it out 
with them directly (since the cable company certainly won't give it to you).
