This is my poll on how people get HDTV. While it doesn't indicated any analog reception, It still shows a fairly high percentage of people who rely on OTA for a picture.

Rabbit ears, and most roof top antenna's only pick up the VHF band of the TV signal, which is traditional analog. The digital UHF band requires a UHF antenna. Simple as that. While they MIGHT get SOME of the lower band UHF with existing VHF antenna, you want an UHF antenna for best results.
