I was visiting my 75-year-old father who's struggling with memory issues last week. He has an awful time working his TV - he has Roku, but he can't figure out how to use it and if you show him, he'll end up forgetting. I was thinking this would be a great market for older folks who don't want or can't use "smart" TVs. Even YoutubeTV doesn't offer a way to "flip through" channels.
