New devices would need to provide easy access to free-to-air networks, pre-install their video-on-demand apps and present separate tiles

    Hard to find, and unnecessary, as long as it has HDMI ports.

    I have NEVER hooked up a smart TV to the Internet, and they work just fine with my digital boxes.

    Same goes for the Blu-ray player that has Netflix, fuck that noise.

    If there’s a dumb option that is cheaper, go for it. Just don’t think you have to pay a premium for it, when you can just not put the TV on your network.

      I feel that they will soon have built-in 5G that you can’t disable, to phone home.
