I don’t even understand the pitch? you have the disc playing, in your hands, your ownership, no buffering, no subscription required. and they’re saying…hey do you want a worse experience?

    I have two TVs. One is 15 years old, the other is so old that, even though it is still HD (only 720p but it’s fine for me) it still has component video.

    I will use those TVs until they die and not buy a new one unless I have no choice. I haven’t seen a single feature on a “smart” TV that I want and a lot that I don’t.

      Picture quality… Watching movies on oled is not comparable to literally anything else. But any decent 4k TV that came out in the last decade will blow out your TVs.

      And besides, if you already have dumb TVs, and you don’t care about the smart side… Don’t add internet to a new TV, and it becomes dumb. With all its glory screen

        The picture quality is fine for me. If you want higher quality, go for it. I have no problem watching 720p video on a 24" TV or 1080p video on a 40" TV. I don’t need higher quality than that.
