Boxee Box Gets Ready To Do It Live: USB TV TunerAntenna Coming In January

1-500x281Many people think of television antennas as relics of the past:bunny ears and ugly wires, black and white, and fuzzy snow pictures. So, instead, we're happy to plop down upwards of $50 (or $85, or $100) a month to get cable, which comes loaded with HD content and (sometimes) high quality programming.Turns out, TV antennas are a lot more useful than most people think: most of the shows people watch are actually available over broadcast networks like FOX, NBC, CBS, and NBC Boxee says 89 out of the top 100 appear on these freely available networks.And soon owners of the Boxee Box will have an easier way to take advantage of them, thanks to a new $49 USB TV tuner that's being released in January (the feature was first spotted by GigaOm in a leaked software build last week).
