 Am> I currently use Youtube TV as my primary service, but they are raising

 Am> tv, and local channels (abc,nbc,cbs).

I'm in an area where I can get those channels over the air with a TV antenna.  A
nd I use a HDHomerun network-attached TV tuner, which can stream TV channels to 
my various devices with their app; I also have a Plex media server on a dedicate
d PC which is configured to use that TV tuner - Plex can stream the live TV chan
nels as well. I have an internal PCI Express TV tuner in my Plex PC (which I bou
ght before I found out about the HDHomerun, which is a stand-alone device).  Bot
h the HDHomerun and Plex can also act as a DVR.

Aside from the streaming options available with the setup, I think another nice 
thing is that the antenna and everything can be set up in a central place, so I 
don't need to attach antennas to my TVs.  I currently live in an apartment, but 
if I had a house, I'd consider mounting a TV antenna on the outside near the roo
f, like people did in the old days.
