There was a time when people were buying the smart TV because Netflix and Apple were then apps on the TV and used the same remote.

But the apps are old and crunchy, the tv shovels ads at you, and the steamers are no longer offering the value required to make smart TVs a prime consolidation target.

I am looking forward to the contraction of the market and a shift back to "just a TV with 4 HDMIs" models. No tuners even.
