As I understand digital TV is not necessarily HDTV. I don't know if it is true but I was told Direct TV already complied with the new law since it is 100% Digital transmission. Most cable companies are not and are still transmitting some of the channels in analog. That will soon end but the cable company usually supplies the box needed.

To receive AIR channels from a Local station you would need a converter. Hopefully the converters will have both standard and digital outputs.

Guess I will have to do some research on this to make sure. But I am not going to buy any more standard TV's.
