Depending on your reception area, an active antenna may be a cheap and convenient solution. They're not the best in all circumstances, but if you don't have poor signal strength the results may be indistinguishable from anything else you can achieve, and they're built to be unobtrusive amongst other items of furniture.

Actually, I get pretty good receptiion in my area including my building.
As far as digital, there are only a small handfull of HD stations in my area anyway.
BTW, I just a got a Sony "XDR-F1HD" tuner and it seems to make the best of a less than great signal.
So far, I like this inexpensive little tuner.

Yes, it's get rave reviews for it's RF section. The specs are great. I need to get one. Lot's of good radio around here.
I was going to get something like the Winegard Omni to go with it.
Not an apartment antenna, tho.

That reminds me of a another question I have. Is there a simple way to add some sort of L-R balance controls to an amp/sys that does not have one?
The sys I'm currenty setting up is just a very simple sys using a Lepai 2020 amp

For tons of stuff on FM antennas, both store bought and home-made see:
88–108 MHz
He also has a page on the Sony "XDR-F1HD" tuner.
