The friend stops and says, "Look, there is a $20 bill on the ground!"
The economist turns and coolly replies, "Can't be. If there was a $20 bill on the ground, somebody would have already picked it up."
Unless this TV doesn't allow that?
Agree with your point, there is little choice.
I recall reading that there was a place to purchase bezel-less, stripped down TVs w/o the smarts, that are basically monitors without being the quality of monitors so they are cheap, and used for creating giant wall displays.
The fix is better laws. The exact same TV in Nordic version have an option to turn ads on (it defaults to off).
