In the US, ATSC 3.0 TV Broadcasts (a nascent but growing tech) typically (there are options) uses H.265 video encoding and AC-4 for audio(*) for which one can record the OTA broadcasts using available commercial tuners for later viewing, well, if you have a platform/application that supports the codecs for the viewing (mostly windows, mac, ios, android) I do agree that there is a dearth of H.265 encoded content that is widely available via authorized distribution channels, and even less if the target audience includes linux users and is not otherwise adaptive to the clients capabilities.
