I know he's not talking about satellite TV. I was saying that it's not an option in reference to not wanting to pay for a cable box that I can't use anyway since it doesn't work right with my TIVO.

Not sure if any of the TVs I linked have a tuner in them. It's an option but right now I am more concerned that my hardware will work and the TV is good and won't be outgrown in a few years (even if it's not zomg the best picture ever) with the TV. I watch maybe 4 stations and a handful of TV shows. OTA picture quality is not high on my list.

I understand DVD quality will be fine and that's what I really care about. It's not that I don't think blu-ray is better than DVD, it's that I don't care about the difference. I've seen both, it's not enough to make me drop the money on a blu-ray player when I only own DVDs, and very few of them at that.

So far the impression I am getting from the various opinions I asked for is that I am insulting the HD TV community and wasting my money on the TV since upgrading everything else isn't a priority.

All I wanted was a TV that didn't show everything to be 2 inches tall with the wide-screen formatting. But it looks like I'll just have to stick to my POS for a few more years.
