Free antenna TV is about to enter a new heyday with ATSC 3.0. Broadcast in 4k, better sound and a lot more channels with other new features. This is all going down right now.

The NFL is in decline and this year will be one of the worst.

And the voice of doom has spoken once again!

LOL!!!

Between cable and internet it's pretty expensive, add a couple premium channels it's high to me around $230 a month give or take. A new cable subscription goes reasonable but they screw people who continue to keep there service year after year, adding the NFL package puts things well over the top. I like to watch live games( fans in the stands) but they can count me out with the skycam with no fans. I've watched games for as long as I can remember( getting on the roof as a kid to get a better picture) but enough will be enough with empty seats and paying an arm and a leg to watch a game on TV. I can use that money on a bass boat,guns, bows, 4 wheeler, Harley or whatever.

You think ATSC won't have subscription programming?

They are saying it will but like the current system on Amazon and Netflix but it won't be cheap but correct. It will be a la carte. If you want an NFL game it can likely be paid for for like $15-25 or something stupid which not many are going to pay that price.

The free programming on regular antenna ATSC 3.0 is going to be extensive. Even now, in big markets there is no need for cable TV. The programming is actually decent and it's all free. I could totally afford cable but haven't had it in 7 yrs and don't miss it. Coupled with Amazon Prime and HBO GO I'm getting a bargain.

I get over 60 channels. The regulars plus movie channels, syndication shows, home improvement channel. That's not even counting the other free 50 internet channels. Cable TV is dying.
