It's even easier with digital broadcast. I finally had to give up my PCI tuner, because who puts PCI slots on a modern mobo? $25 will get you a USB TV tuner capable of getting all the OTA and cable channels. I used to get, like, 7 analog OTA channels - ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, and a regional independent - but I get 30 digital. All the majors have added 3-5 channels of SD reruns or other filler. I mean, it's mostly shit, and the only thing I actually watch is local news, but for a one-time $25 cost, it's a great supplement to streaming.
My biggest problem with MythTV is it doesn't interface with streaming, so I use Kodi on the frontend to source from mythtv, netflix, hbo, or whatever.
Yeah, Myth's built-in internet browser is pretty dire - I have a 2nd virtual desktop to open a browser if I want to watch something via the internet, but I don't bother with Netflix, etc...
