Signed up for Chicago. Would love this as I'm not subscribed to a cable package, just Netflix and a set of the digital rabbit ears that I could get rid of.

Doesn't that just mean that existing free OTA channels will be made available for recording/streaming? So you're just paying for someone to stream this stuff to you, right?

^ for some people (like me), you can't get all the OTA channels...i mean, i should in theory, but i simply can't

and my parents, who live in the sticks, can only get 50-75% of the OTA channels, depending on the day and weather...i think they'd gladly pay $7-8/month to get ALL of them, plus a DVR

even if i could get everything OTA (i can't), I'm fine paying a few bucks a month to have someone else get it working well, keep it working well, and provide a simple easy interface with DVR. I've played around with htpcs and slingboxes and everything in the past, it was always just more of a headache than I want.

The real value of this is if you can manage sign up for local channels outside of your region.

It could mean goodbye Sunday Ticket for a number of people.
