I've been using OTA analog and now digital since December 2007. For the most part I do not miss cable/satellite at all. I was planning to pickup a cheap cable package, but the cheapest offered in my area is $60 a month for analog cable (Time Warner). I don't have a good line of site at my new house for DirecTV/Dish. Time Warner does offer a $8 a month package that gets you 15 channels (locals basically), and the HD locals come in with a QAM tuner. I might pick that up since some of the locals (Fox) have a weak OTA signal at my location.
