OEMs are increasingly focused on using TVs as a way to show customers ads.

    Get a projector and a screen. They’re all dumb.

      Not always an option. You’d need to dim the lights every time and - most importantly - have a whole spare wall in your home.

        Im sure you could mount a rollup projector screen anywhere you would put your TV, but your first point is huge. The light issue is a huge non starter

          Two of our TVs hang from the arms in the corners and one occupies a bookshelf. I am not sure it would work that well with a screen that’s less than a meter wide.
