Quality for me is as good as watching cable. Every once in a while it'll get choppy for about 15 seconds, but it's very rare.

Technically it's a 'grey' area in Canada at this time, lol.
But yes, the feeds are pirated to a degree.
MLB Network works great because it's coming from a stream using a legit account.
The same can't be said for all channels though.

I may just go with antennae sooner than later as we can get most of our shows legally thru Netflix, Amazon, etc.

Its good.
My internet is only 10mbps, but everything comes in as good as my directv used to except for hockey games.

The quality gets really good for hockey games if my wireless internet stays above 10mbps consistently for at least 10 15 minutes.

I imagine the picture wont be an issue as long as you have normal internet.

Re: Cord cutting

On Apple TV I use: Hulu, Netflix, and Direct TV Now currently. Have someones cable credenitals luckily so I can watch Cavs and Indians on the Fox Sports Go app on Apple TV as well.

Honestly, the only reason I pay for Direct TV Now is so my kid can get Disney Junior access and I can get AMC access. Actually it also makes watching Raw and Smackdown on USA easier then having to airplay from my iPAD using my friends cable credentials in the USA app.

So dumb the USA app has a live option on iPAD, but not on the Apple TV version.

Disney Jr has an app (not sure if Apple TV, but Fire and Roku do i believe) that with the cable credentials you can watch live or on demand episodes....that'd help you there, but not AMC

Yes we use the app, but I have TWC credentials and they won't let you login to Disney and quite a few others unfortunately.
