Over the air TV is required by law for the stations to retain their broadcast licenses by the FCC. Also, I seriously doubt that they are losing any money on over the air broadcasting. They are so bloated with advertising that there is little actual programming taking place.
In my own humble opinion, what we call television will make some radical changes over the next few decades. I see 4k becoming widespread - even over the air. I also see streaming becoming the mainstream viewing medium and cable and satellite fading into history. Cable is getting too greedy and are pricing themselves out of the market. They are charging too much to end users and then having too much advertising.
One of my pet peeves about TV is the so-called cable-only "stations" like History, Discovery, Science, Nickelodeon, and others. Since they are only available through a signal provider like cable or satellite, they are what I call subscription channels, As such, they are getting paid for their content. The signal provider pays them for their channel while the consumer pays the signal provider to view their content. Then, they load it up with advertising. That was a BIG deciding factor when I cut the cable for good. I do not want to see a lot of advertising on a pay channel!
