Well then it doesn't let you watch it, obviously.
- VLM 12y agoCombining two wikipedia articles, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_number_of_broadband_Internet_subscriptions http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_number_of_... and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_number_of_households http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_number_of_... there are 87 million broadband subscriptions (likely shared) vs 117 million households. So thats at least 30 million permanently un-TVed households. Which would probably be good for the nation. My mother in law got a smart TV about three years ago. No internet access for her. At the time I couldn't figure it out, but it makes more sense now. One interesting problem is there are a lot of TV models out there and none of the software will ever be upgraded in practice, its like Android phones, its unlikely it'll ever be upgraded from what it shipped with. Its likely the "smart" features of her TV are already unusable due to API changes over the years.
