> And Apple courting current TV Station to put out an App for their current livestream content. Essentially replacing Over the Air Broadcast with Broadcast via IP.

This is already a reality in Finland.

I haven't owned an antenna cable for over 5 years. All my TV comes directly through the internet from each channel's own app. Most provide live TV or at least make digital releases available at the same time as the live broadcast. (Not that I watch "live" TV anymore, since I don't do sports - which IMO are the only thing where being live actually matters)

My LG TV is just a large monitor for me. The only use it gets is when I need to adjust volume for my consoles or turn the TV on/off. With the new ATV remote it'll be relegated to a fancy console volume controller =)
