Now with some stations already broadcasting digital and with digital sub-channels - I now pick up more programming, looks better than satellite too.
Hence why I may pickup another mini later this year. with all the tv shows and such being available on the internet - I probably will not go back to satellite.
I don't have rabbit ears (too addicted to time shifting, and not willing to jump into a DVR solution for HD just yet), but am getting all "TV" content through the internet. We had been using an old G4 PowerBook hooked up to the TV (and still do for a few sites like NickJR for the kids), but since we put Boxee on our AppleTV we've been watching Hulu, CBS, and YouTube through that instead of the computer.
I'd love for Apple to put Hulu/etc support directly in the AppleTV. However, there's a major hitch there: they need to go all-out with it and make it "great" support, not half-assed like their built-in YouTube support!
Until then, I think Boxee is the way to go for TV content. For movies: I'd subscribe to NetFlix if they offered downloadable movies through Boxee. I doubt it would happen, but that would be great. Streaming HD isn't a very good idea (too many bits, too little processing power in the AppleTV, etc), but downloadable time-limited versions like what Apple does would be really nice. In the meantime, I'm happy enough with either renting from Apple or (more likely) hopping over to the Blockbuster on the corner and picking up a (non-HD) disk.
