True, but they're MUCH more expensive. For example, the lowest-end 43" this company sells for a little over $2000; you can find ones on Amazon for a tenth the price. Yes, a lot of that is the industrial quality, but some of it is the spy/adware subsidization.

Yup. I just find it funny that the one place it's unacceptable to show ads is over other people's ads.

I thought I remembered LG or some other brand was identifying ads in your content to replace them with other ads.
