There was an article today.?

That said that television viewers are using antennas to receive over-the-air TV stations on HDTV instead of cable or satellite. Does this mean the end of cable and satellite?

Answer:
No. Even though some people use the over-the-air antennas to reveive an HD signal, there's no over-the-air HBO. The variety offered by cable and satellite will never be achieved for free over the air.
No, it doesn't mean the end of dish and cable! What you can get from your own attenna, if you are line-of-sight, is local stations (mostly the top 4 networks). But not any of the "cable stations" that don't broadcast over the air, e.g., ESPN, Discovery, Comedy Channel, CNN, etc.
