[QUOTE="Jim1348, post: 209754, member: 4017"][b]ATSC 3.0 Will Be Here Within 5 years To Replace ATSC 1.0[/b] That is an excellent point. Our two biggest TVs are Samsungs, 46 inches, and only have two HDMI inputs! I pondered that issue at the time of purchase, anticipating it being an issue in the future. Despite that, I decided that the additional cost of a TV with more inputs was not worth it to me at the time and I could simply buy an HDMI switch in the future, if necessary. Both of those have a Tivo (one Tivo Romaio OTA and one Tivo Mini) connected to them and a streaming box. Ironically, most of my viewing is through a Slingbox, I have both a PRO HD and a 500, and they are fed by a Roku 3 and the Tivo Mini. Usually I am on the computer and have the laptop computer playing some video, via the Slingbox add. Since my DSL isn't all that fast right now, it may be quite some time before a better streaming box is a viable choice for me. As far as OTA goes, I am actually pretty satisfied with plain old boring ATSC right now. If I am watching on a laptop computer with a 13 inch screen, I really doubt that it will matter all that much to me![/QUOTE]
