That only makes their “people need to refresh their sets for our bottom line” even worse for them.
BTW, 30 years ago TVs were expensive and still failed. There was a viable TV repair industry because it was worth spending the money to repair and easier to repair.
Anecdotally, my Plasma and my LCDs have been more problem free than when my family had CRT TVs back in the day.

Yeah, exactly. TVs were better back then. they were more durable (The Wiimote accidents would never send a CRT to the dump), and actually repairable.
and they lasted decades. Hell, I’ve seen people find CRT TVs found abandoned in fields for years and bring them back with minimal effort.
as long as the tube/neck of a CRT is intact, it will run/be repairable.
