In 2009 what happens to people with televisions who use antennas for reception?

You can still receive TV signals by antenna, but the signals can only be read by high definition receivers. "New" TVs, VCRs, Satellite boxes and Cable boxes will be labeled as HD ready, so they can translate high definition transmissions, but older, analog based TVs and VCRs will require an adaptor to translate the HD signal. From what I understand, adaptors will soon be available for about $70 to $80 each and there are supposed to be coupons or vouchers available that will offer a $40 discount (one coupon per family) to the general public.
