Ironically enough, go with DirecTV now. Gets all the channels most streaming services have but you also get your locals still. And it comes with 20 hours of free DVR.
A lot of people recommending antennas, which will definitely get you locals. But depending on how many TVs you have, I needed to 3, that was a no go for me.
Apple TV, direcTV now (includes HBO for only $5), and netflix, and you can watch pretty much whatever you want.

What internet speed do you need to actually be able to do this?
Depending on how many streaming devices you have, I'd recommend at least 100MB if you're moving to full time streaming.

Number 1 if your tv is near a window buy a cheap one and connect to back of tv and place near window ...if ur not close to window....buy one from Wal-Mart, it cost 99 bucks, place it in your attic, i didn't even re enforce mine to anything, just leaned it up against a beam...and connect thru cable line...and I have all locals plus more ,all locals are in hd

PSVue via Apple TV is great. Haven't had any issues since the first couple months after launch.
The unlimited cloud DVR is a lifesaver for small kids. I have every Disney Jr. show/movie added to My Shows so I always have an arsenal of content for the kids for whatever show they wanna watch.
The East to West scrolling is different from what you're used to but after a while it becomes a habit.
We have the $50 package which I think has 60-70 channels. But since we only watch about 20 of those regularly, you can set them as your favorites which groups them together limiting the amount of scrolling to get to another channel.

I was just invited to test our new over the top streaming box for DirecTV. I am waiting for it to get shipped. You will be able to watch actual DirecTV not DirecTV Now on it. I think Sunday Ticket for some without needing a dish has been a wish for a long time.
The box is Android based and goes by model C71kw. Connects via ethernet or wifi, has a voice remote with touch pad in the middle. I am really looking forward to testing it.

When I cancelled DirecTV, I removed just the DTV satellite dish (I left the mast mounted to the roof) and mounted an HD antenna in it's place (required minor modification of the mast to accommodate the new antenna). I used my iPhone compass to align the HD antenna and connected the existing coax that was already feeding all 3 of my TV's.
Works like a champ.
