I tend to spend a lot of time these days providing advice for those installing TV antennas. People often get a TV antenna as part of the process of getting rid of cable. Local TV news is the number one reason that anyone bothers to work to get access to broadcast linear video streams. Like with many technological revolutions, the old thing will probably not go away entirely, but will contract into the niches where it is most valuable.
