Netflix now have a tier that does that. The CHEEK! Talk about "Wanting to have your cake AND eat it"!

Netflix is pushing a bunch of woketard series and movies. It's not worth even 1 penny.
But their share has lost more than half of its value in the past few months, so. Good riddance. :-DD

And don't forget that CRTs have convergence and focus errors, various geometric distortion, etc. The best ones kept those things under control quite well, but they couldn't reach the absolute perfect geometry of flat panels.

IIRC LG Flatron monitors had excellent geometry. The best I have seen ever. The high end brand Eizo had CRT monitors that used digital convergence control which worked very well on big monitors. But yes, flat panels kick the crap out of CRT. Unfortunately software makers have started to blur lines and text that basically undo all the sharpness we can get from TFT screens  so we are back to blurry images again that are worse than a good CRT monitor :palm:

Sony and Mitsubishi probably had the best CRT computer displays out there. LG wasn’t as far (they didn’t even have aperture grille CRTs, IIRC). Not saying they were bad, just not the top.

Many high end CRTs had advanced digital control of the geometry. Digital control was absolutely the norm for the final 10 years or so of the CRT’s dominance, though of course simpler versions in cheaper models.

Then don't watch it, and while you're at it, stop bitching about it. Nobody wants to hear you complain the world is changing.

LGBTIQ++!!111 or otherwise, television is mostly garbage these days. I would sooner watch episodes of "Queer Eye" than "Married at First Sight" or anything involving "influencers" (I'm sorry, that's not a real job).
