You mean men with a list of what they want but never end up dating women that match it? Yes. Though less at my current age, most of my friends are married at this point.
Edit:
There's nothing technically stopping you from having multiple tuner ICs and using the correct one along with some form of external adapter if there's a difference in connectors.
Then they should just sell their monitor with a HDMI/USB stick. That way they might also be able to increase sales by selling "upgrade sticks"/"special edition sticks".
They won't do that, because they'll earn more by selling you a whole new TV instead of an "upgrade stick". And they don't want a secondary market of TV extensions, because at this point they'll have to admit they're commodity producers.
Isn't the USA like most other western countries that have access to the free to air channels over the Internet?
Granted, I think a better title/conclusion would be to do away with TVs completely and just have pure monitors with a separate STB, or PC with a TV card.
True, I missed that. But then I wouldn't expect a monitor targeted at being used as an in-store display to be heavy on apps or slow to switch input. There might be an issue in the boot-up though.
Clearly then you didn't read the article, or even the title. It isn't about monitors but rather TVs. 40" is too small for a 4K TV. $1800 is to expensive.
I'd rather say the article being about wishing that TVs were pure monitors but with an IR sensor and more inputs than a generic monitor.
40" is certainly not too small for any home I've lived in or visited. Besides, the article itself asked for monitors in the range 40" to 60".
As for the Benq, the most expensive price around here translates to about 1400USD. Granted, that's still ~50% more than the asked for 1000USD but that's most likely due to a lack of demand.
If you want a TV that follows the rest of the spec (UHD, >=40", <1000USD, >=4HDMI CEC) then, sadly, it seems like you'll have to live with the woe of a "Smart TV", with its complex remote, such as the Philips 55PUT6400 55" 60Hz (~918USD converted price):

Firefox on Android, HTC Sensation, works fine.
I don't have access to a desktop at the moment but do you perchance have Tracking Protection active? That might be helping.
As I remember it, these stories were mostly due to the "psychologists" basically cheering him on, same with the media. This is an example of our abhorrent mental health system as much as our legal system.
Didn't they also manage to pull in some medium somehow?
