I had this TV and just bought a new one for Christmas. To be fair, the TV was released in mid-2010, the YouTube app was supported for over 7 years. Many other apps on the TV still worked when I got rid of it a month ago. There's a lot of valid complaints about smart TV software not being updated, but I think this is a stretch.
- thinkingemote 9y agoIt wouldn't be much of a stretch to follow that line of reasoning and propose that people should never buy smart products ever again. They should instead rent them. maybe that's what Google wants also.

- andymcsherry 9y agoLooks like the average is about 5 years. It still fell back to being a dumb TV just fine, I had a chromecast and an Apple TV hooked up. http://www.tvnewscheck.com/playout/2014/07/npd-displaysearch-study-underscores-urgency-of-next-gen-tv-standards-work/ http://www.tvnewscheck.com/playout/2014/07/npd-displaysearch...
