I remember having a TV tuner card back in the day on my old desktop and this is exactly what I did. I don't watch much TV or anything so.I haven't really checked, but are such cards available today with the encrypted digital cable that's ubiquitous everywhere? Even most broadcast is digital now and requires a decoder box between.

OTA: Yes.

Cable: no, you'd need a CableCard, and approved device (i.e. DVR), etc.
