People are watching less and less Television. Is it possible that streaming TV may be so desperate they pay for a viewing TV along with their services in say 20 years or even sooner?

    There is one TV that is free because it comes with banner ads across the bottom, and a camera to verify that people are watching.

      Nah, it’s still not free. They’ll charge you a monthly fee for that TV (only $10 a month for a $400* TV, so convenient!). A higher tier of subscription lets you turn off the banner ads. Through a menu in the TV settings that they mislabelled, and it tends to get hidden behind the banner ads. And with every weekly update, it turns back on.
