That's a one way communication Good point. But the TVs (like mine) are 120 Hz refresh. So they need algorithms to interpolate/smooth the video inputs that are 24 Hz, 60 Hz interlaced, 60 Hz. Sounds like a nice feature. But people complained that the new algorithms pushed to the TV without people's knowledge or consent were inferior to the old algorithms. I personally wouldn't know, I kept my TV far away from an antenna input. Sony can't "spy" on you with this method, but they can "break" your TV while you're asleep.
