They also track you less. They still track you, but it isn’t even close to what a smart TV does.
Comment on I got this popup ad on my TV **while watching a DVD**
v4ld1z@lemmy.zip 6 months agoThe UI is better and not as slow as on smart TVs from what I’ve heard. Plus you can play games on the console and watch DVDs and Blurays if that’s your thing. Apart from that, not much.

This is true, because smart TVs have shitty processors, and consoles do not. Consoles are made for media, smart TVs have shitty embedded software on slow hardware, comparative.

Sony famously pushed DVDs into the mainstream and won a generation of console wars by building a pretty good DVD player into the PS2 which also happened to cost not much more than most DVD players did at the time

PS2 is STILL my only DVD player. Why fix what ain’t broken?
