DirecTV stated the following when I asked them:

Standard DIRECTV receivers are designed to work for many years to
come to provide the same high-quality standard-definition
programming that you enjoy as a DIRECTV customer today. "
Unless, of course, you also get OTA (Over-The-Air) programming
through your DirecTV receiver (it has a coax port for an external
antenna). Not clear whether the DirecTV receiver also will tune the
external signal (like a VCR can). I've never used it, as the reason
we have DirecTV is we can't get OTA programming.
Probably not a problem for most users.
