- I don't want my TV crash regularly - I don't want to connect my TV to the internet - I don't want my TV to spy on me - I don't want to have ads on my TV - I do want to have control over image/video processing - I do want to watch stuff on my TV for which no app is available - I don't want to pay extra for compute which is already available with my PC - I do want to be able to access my existing file and disk based media library

For me, convenience is having my dumb TV connected to my PC. It's not impossible to get a remote for a PC too you know.



OP wasn't arguing your use case doesn't exist.

They were arguing it's uncommon and requires above average competency.
