    Well I guess I’ll add Vizio to the list of brands to never recommend again. It’s a shame too because the bang for your buck value with Vizio is pretty nice.

      If they start flooding the current models with even worse amounts of advertising, might even have to trash my existing one.

      Problem with Vizio and LG is WebOS though… easily remedied with a streaming device but WebOS has like 1/10 available apps.
