- scarface74 4y agoYou’re right, and people haven’t watched TV in 20 years.
- thakoppno 4y agoIt appears you’re being facetious but it’s been about ten years now of TV watching for me accompanied by my smartphone. TV watching in the most traditional sense is dead in my opinion.

- stjohnswarts 4y agolol until my iphone has a 40" screen, no it doesn't replace a PC. If you want to stare at a 6-7" screen all day then have at it, but your eyes aren't going to appreciate it when you're 50.
