I had cable for a short period of time in the 1990's. I thought that the quality was never as good as free over the air broadcast TV. Where I grew up we had a very big TV antenna on a tall mast with a rotor that could be positioned with a dial that sat beside the TV. We could pick up a lot of channels, and we could even get different broadcasts on the same channel depending on the position of the antenna. I know that there were way more unique broadcasters than what you find today on 500-channel satellite TV. By the way, I think that most digital flat screens can receive free over the air digital high-definition TV.
For quite a while, I have not had a TV. I don't miss TV. And, when I do see TV somewhere else, I marvel at how inane the content is.
