Not an issue of that... it's a wonderful side effect of our economy called "Planned obselecence". If they built TVs like they used to, there'd be no reason for most people to buy new TVs... They do the same thing with home appliances now... My mom had a fridge that was older than me, but was ditched in favor of energy effeciency 7 years ago. Since then we already had to buy a replacement fridge once due to out-of-warranty failure :happysad:
