Wonderful news. Everybody stream.

Problem is, streaming services are becoming expensive too, and there is hardly anything free, other than OTA, which is spotty and not very clear. And, you don't get the local channels with streaming. Fact and problem is that, the streaming services come via the same providers as cable.

I gave up trying to make do with the streaming and OTA antennas, and came back to cable. Maybe someday somebody will make streaming worthwhile and inexpensive.

I have Comcast super basic (local channels) and internet. $70 a month for three TV's. I have built in Roku on my TV and between Pluto TV (free) and YouTube there is always something on to watch.

There are several free services with ads. Tubing, Pluto, Crackle, ... even YouTube is free with occasional ads.

I got rid of Directv. I now stream everything I watch. I get everything free, with comercials, not near as bad as the network and cable channels type comercials. Much better and not spending any money to watch TV anymore.

Did you try the Marathon antenna? It does wonders for me.
