People still watch TV over the air?  I've been doing it over the net (if I watch anything at all anymore, which is to say, generally not...) for years.  :P

It pisses me off I have to RENT a god damn BOX to be able to watch cable around my house. I already RENT 1 HD and 1 DIGITAL box, but now I can't even have a damn small TV in my room without paying out my ass.

Commies...

The cable server here still does and will continue support basic service for a long while, no boxes needed.  Have you tried asking if your provider supports basic cable connections, you do not need a box for those, but you are limited to like 124 channels or so...

Completely ready. The Analogue TV that I don't own can be replaced at no cost by an equally non-existant digital device...
My life and brain will remain unfilled with all that tedious life absorbing sh*t!
