The profit margin for entertainment bundling (TV and Movies) is going to be thin for the middle man!
That started happening 15 years ago. (or more). New TV's are Smart and have connections to Netflix, Hulu, HBO, Amazon, etc. built in. I also used a ROKU box, but can not find remote, still unpacking.
