If you haven’t seen the market shift then you would certainly think they are nuts.
But with CEC options, more sound bars, etc...
More than anything else, it’s becoming rare that a client has more than one component feeding a TV. Used to have BDP, AVR, CD, Comcast, Roku... now with Comcast streaming Netflix and Amazon Prime, the Comcast remote does the whole system.
Just wondering yesterday what URC and RTI talk about when they plan for the “future”. They may be feeling like a video rental store owner 15 years ago...
The market size is what you make it. The big players have enough money to force it into everyone's home vs. it continuing to be a small niche item for enthusiasts and "pros" (joking).
