i should have clarified what i meant by quality was the image. for example, bunny rabbit antenna wire on one end vs 1080p type thing

This. But you can get hi-def to analog converters if on cable.

But the OP was very confusing because you still get the commercials with cable. Drives me batty on the rare occasion I watch a channel with commercials.

i think you meant to say that you can get digital to analog convertors if you have an analog set and are pulling down TV OTA

Yeah, I knew what I meant but this is probably more accurate.

Nope. Between Netflix and Amazon Prime I've got more content than I care to watch. I spend 20x more time reading RSS stuff and playing games than I do watching TV shows or movies.
