You can homebrew a modern replacement with Plex, HDHomeRun Prime and a cablecard.

I did that for a few years until I realized I wasn't really watching TV.

Yeah, I still have a streaming cable subscription but I pretty much only watch sports on it. If ESPN goes full streaming, that's probably where I'll end up. Between ESPN+ and AppleTV+ I'm most of the way there already.
