To be fair, you can't get all that with one system if you keep the cord attached, either.
But you're right, I think. The closest you can get right now to your "one system" is probably the FireTV. Obviously Vue and music content won't be a problem there. You don't get a direct antenna in, but you can use a Tablo or HDHomerun I think to get basically the same thing. As for your central repository of "purchased" content, you'll probably have to use alternative methods as I mentioned, and then do something like run a Plex server and access your media with the Plex app on the FireTV.

I really would love to be able to use some of the storage on AppleTV or Amazon to be able to download "Frozen" to its internal HD so I don't have to stream it everytime and waste bandwidth.

Would a PS4 be viable? It would allow me to run PSVue as well as Hulu, HBO Go, Netflix (i think). Does the PS3 or PS4 have an attachment that will accept a COAX cable for OTA TV (similar to the Xbox one)?
Finally, what does Playstation use as it's store for music/movies? It has it's own, right?
ETA: The ONLY downside is that I wouldnt be able to stream in 4k. Which isn't a big deal since I don't have a 4k TV.
