So…. Remove the usb stick?

Are they actually just TVs with a USB stick? I thought I read about another restaurant TV and they were super stripped down, and designed towards displays and not to use like a TV.

What does that even mean though? All my TVs are driven by Roku or FireSticks. All I use is “the display”. What is missing as a TV that you would want these days? Are people somewhere still trying to receive channels?

This is obviously in Canada. Even if you are paying for cable, they are giving you a PVR or set-top box and the “TV” is just a monitor. I cannot think of a provider in Canada where you would need a tuner in your display.

Well I used to agree with you until I bought a sound bar and learned what HDMI ARC was and my TV would not support it.
