It takes such a minimal amount of effort nowadays to set up a barebones pi or laptop with Linux , hook to TV and just watch in web browser or use a graphical frontend like kodi. Theres millions of sources for doing all of this.

Oh well , my coworkers can complain to me about $250 monthly cable bills. I'll just smile.

    I know what you're saying but there's dozens of people at just my company making $100k plus and they need to go to the phone store to set up a new email address. Like these people don't know how to make a pivot table in excel and they have no interest in learning it.

    Most humans just don't have much intellectual curiosity they just want to get paid and spend money.

    There's always Vero (https://osmc.tv/vero/). Basically customized Kodi (OSMC) already installed on hardware for them; they can just unbox and hook up to the T. V.
