@abhimanyuaryan I don't live in the USA either and there's plenty of alternatives around here if I want to bother to search. The next TV I'll get (if my old ones ever break down) will probably be non-smart, as the 'smart' features are always broken after a while. We all need settop boxes anyway, so might as well make that settop box smart and the TV being good at just being a TV. Unless it's too expensive, then it'll just be smart again if that's cheaper to replace. Yeah, I don't get it either. *shrug*
