Ditched Sky What Are My Options?

Ditched Sky due to price and not really watching it.
I've not got a aerial but have sky cables into bedroom where I might get a Freesat 500gb box so we can record stuff still (still expensive at £200).
What are my options for the 2 other rooms where we currently have multi room sky boxes. Have ethernet and Nvidia Shields in these rooms. Not fussed about recording in these rooms.
Cheers
