There are many ways that cord cutters are getting free TV, but over the air TV is still he most used. The Internet might let people watch almost any show like a DVR on steroids and it works well. The problem with Internet TV is that getting a live stream is difficult or not legal. This means that to watch the American Idol final you either wait till it's online or you need to find it on a local station. There are some small upfront costs to getting your antenna and maybe a digital box for those with older TV's. If you have not played around with an antenna since the Nixon administration things have changed.
The first thing you will notice is that the signal is now in HD and not he fuzzy picture you got in he old days. There is no need to have your little brother holding the antenna every which way until you got a good picture. In the modern age you either get a great HD picture or nothing at all. The picture also depends on where the antenna is placed and you want to make sure you point your antenna towards the broadcast tower.
Once you get that signal now you can watch sports news broadcasts live. As much as I love all the content online there are many times that I want access to live television. This holds true for season finales of shows and when an important news story breaks. If you have not tried over the air TV and have a newer television that cost is about $50.00 to get an antenna. There are many indoor antennas that do a great job of bringing in over the air television. If you live in a rural area you mighty need an outdoor antenna. The channels that the antenna will tune is mostly network television and local channels. You might also get sub channels that bring in more content. In my area one channels runs regular programming on the main channel and movies and kid programs on the sub channels.

The change in technology has improved over the air television and the HD signals look great. When I have guest over most of the time they do not know that they are watching free TV through an antenna. It's always a surprise when I tell my guest that I do not have any cable and get most of my TV viewing from over the air channels or the Internet.
Give it a try you will be surprised how improved that signal is over antenna.
