Let me ask... if i don't get a box and continue to use the tuner built into the tv, will other channels, over time, become digital giving me the better picture quality?

That will depend on your provider as to whether or not they will let you have them. For example, Comcast in my area was playing around with digital simulcasts of all of their analog channels. I got all of them with my set. I didn't get any new channels, just digital versions of the analog channels I got. They since stopped doing that, and even people with boxes aren't getting them. If I had to *guess*, I would say you would get the standard channels digitized without a box, when that happens. Have you done a scan, to see just how many channels you can get with the cable hooked directly to the TV? You might be surprised.
