John - I dropped cable (Dish actually) 3+ years ago and survived on OTA and Netflix w/o too much issue. I didn't have internet hooked up to the TV, so I did miss History, Discovery & Top Gear. On the plus side, I watched a lot less TV. We still had Crapcast for internet. We recently moved and no longer receive any of the OTA stations. Tried a few "fancy" antennas, with only marginal improvement.
The easy and cheap solution was to get Crapcast's limited basic cable. Since we already had them for internet (only game in town), it only added around $4 to the bill. Now I get the standard OTA stations in HD w/ zero issues, plus a bunch of other stations, including Discovery. Most are crap, but worth the $4 extra on the bill.
I'm interested in what you end up with, as I'm looking to web enable my TV as well to take advantage of online content.
