I used to think that too until I bought a new TV that has great Amazon/Netflix/Youtube apps. I suddenly didn't need a different box and have one remote. I'm sure I'll need a new external box in a few years but for now its so simple its perfect.
- manyxcxi 10y agoI recently got a Vizio 4K 'tuner free' tv. Basically it's just a chrome cast built in to the display and you just plug your dish/cable tuner in if you have it. Everything runs off your phone or cable box remote. It's nice because I don't have to worry about stuff like the Netflix app aging out and not supporting X,Y,or Z feature. Is my phone up to date? That's it. I'd like to take it a step further and have it COMPLETELY dumb and plug my own chromecast/Roku/whatever in to it. No WiFi, no anything. Give me a good 4K display with whatever processing capabilities make the experience better and then get the hell out of the way. I feel like this one is ALMOST there, just need to go one more step or two- and then quit spying on me would be nice too.
