I don’t even understand the pitch? you have the disc playing, in your hands, your ownership, no buffering, no subscription required. and they’re saying…hey do you want a worse experience?

Dumb tv with the latest panel tech is too much to ask for these days too.
this is one major reason i switched to a projector. The “smart” malware trend has not caught up to home cinema projectors
Almost every TV is a perfectly good dumb TV when it doesn’t know your wifi password.
Seriously… Like just don’t connect it to the Internet? I dont know how it works when you don’t have a PC though, it’s easy for me to say don’t connect it because my PC is what gets the data im watching. Maybe these people only have a smart TV so that they can watch streaming services with it.
Don’t look for TVs, look for PC monitors or industrial displays
Absolutely this. I’m lucky enough to have access to commercial & hospitality displays. Great picture quality and longevity with none of the forced online nonsense.
is there a retailer I can buy gently used ones you know of?
While I agree with you these practices do bring prices down for consumers. I just have the TV off internet and use an AppleTV.
