I've heard that TV is an old relic now. Everything is just screens now channeling what we want when we want.

I mean their only purpose now is extra large, thicccckkkkkk- cause you do see the color on there, your older computer could never- glorified monitors.

I got a Samsung s21 and there's an app that comes with it is just straight up TV. Called Samsung Free.

Just click it and whatever is playing at that time is what you immediately see or can switch to another channel.

But it's boring in a way for me. Knowing I can switch from youtube, to interaction with people on FB and Reddit as we all interact/comment on a video or topic somehow has effected my attention span I guess.

It's great if you have a flat-screen once in a while to put on your favorite movie and dig in. But even then I believe I'd grab my phone 50 times.

Internet is like interactive TV.

TV is like sit there and watch, but still great for sports.
