We cut out our tv also. With Comcast and gave them all our boxes just have Internet.
Between Netflix Amazon prime and Hulu. Got too much tv but it's all in hd. Plus the shows are much better Also look into a Kodi box just google "Kodi box" and learn a whole new way to watch tv. YouTube has tons of videos on the subject.
I'm right outside the antenna coverage so I had to learn about other ways.
Have fun! Oh and plus the antenna can bring in even better hd than any cable service. The signal does not get degraded as much. It doesn't have to be routed thru so many paths to get to you its direct from station to you.
My daughter has an antenna that's how I know that fact.
But of course it all depends on the quality of antenna you get and how close you are to the station.
Good luck.

I use Google voice. It doesn't care who your ISP is. You can use it at the library if you please.

Add a streaming device (I prefer Roku) and you can get just about everything you want.

I canceled cable. Got Roku and I pay a lot less for the shows I actually want to see.
