The other thing that could hurt OTA is if it doesn't keep up with the best quality. Currently OTA is the best quality that you can get for stations that broadcast OTA.
But will that be the case with 4K or other standards better than 1080i/720p? Have they even started talking about new OTA broadcast standards for 4K or beyond? How long will that take to implement?
It looks like the world of 4K is coming pretty quickly with Netflix starting to offer some content in 4K and apparently some or all of this years World Cup will be in 4K, but it is not clear how you will receive the signal.
Then again, maybe 4K will be a passing fad, just like 3D for TV. But I doubt it.
