FWIW,

I've been very happy for about 10 years with DirecTV and my Tivo.  You can
add local channels to your feed for a little extra and I can get all of my
NY Rangers hockey games with the Center Ice package.  All local stations
will soon be, or already have gone to, digital instead of analog broadcast
so if you still have an older TV not set up for the digital signal, an
antenna won't work.  Many thanks to the FCC and Big Brother who knows whats
best for you....   Ohmmmm   Ohmmmmm.....

Cheers!!
Jim
