Users on Reddit are reporting that they're now seeing 90-second unskippable ads on YouTube's TV app, even as policy restricts them to 30 seconds.

          yeah I got a bit lazy there, at 55 inches you are at $604

          When you go to 65 though its $1004 so pretty big jump.

          Oddly enough going from 65 to 75 is only another ~375 USD (1377)

          To me the best deal seems like 50 or 55 inches, although your room size and seating positions are likely the most important.

          Also interesting if you’re in the USA Best Buy does have some non-smart TVs and even a filter for it, although its mostly no-name brands or Samsung.

            Thanks for fleshing out the full picture. So perhaps the largest TVs at the store are getting some pretty big subsidies, courtesy Advertising Inc.

            And good tip on Best Buy. Thank you. What an informative lil comment, Leo 😎
