As long as you do not watch any local OTA rebroadcasts.

Comcast does the cable channel transcoding centrally (CO?)
and at least at this point has not consistently either backhauled
the local OTAs (for central transcoding), or pushed the newer
transcoder hardware and/or profiles out to the regions.
