unhelpful and rude comment. the only advice you have to offer is 'buy an expensive tv'. do you think people buy cheaper tvs out of ignorance?
I know plenty of people who could afford a high end model but love a "bargain" and feeling like they got one over on the manufactures not realising they're playing right into the plan.
Partially, yes they do.
It's been years since the black Friday secret about TVs have been spread on the internet, yet people will still but them. A cheap TV with our without ads will suck because you get what you pay for.
Also the meme is obviously overexaggerating because it's being memey. Most TVs don't restart on their own for example, or get slowed down by updates. If you have any specific examples please share and shame the models.
