There's nothing comparable available, and it has full support from the chipdesign companies, just about anyone who doesn't know much about linux can easily handle it without the knowledge how to set up a development system. CI Support is on the roadmap as well for DVB-C. While all of that it is still compatible to existing kernel drivers. Updates will also affect all systems at once and won't need a particular kernel versions. So it is more like a question if someone wants a prebuilt, working car which has guaranteed support, or wants to build his own car both is doable of course.
