Since the internet speeds went above the 500kbps mark, the number of things people can do with their interconnected devices skyrocketed. Automated homes, connected cars, and internet enabled TVs. The latter is what threatens to revolutionize the entertainment world as we know it, do away with cable TV and abolish the need for expensive blue-ray players. Even though smart TVs are so lucrative, most people find them either too costly, or limiting.
