I have often heard that TVs are kinda a thing of the past and that they aren’t used much anymore to watch TV shows and movies. Do you think that’s actually true? And what about you? Do you watch your stuff on a TV, or do you prefer to watch them on your computer or even your tablet or phone? Even more, do you still own a TV?

Definitely not a thing of the past for me. I still use my TV all the time, whether it be for streaming or watching my physical collection of DVDs. That's not even including video games.

No. I don't watch TV since around middle school. The only time I watch TV is to watch some sport events such as recently the Volleyball National League, which turned out to be a massacre x). When it comes to shows, movies, other stuff almost every single time I watch it on PC, rarely on phone, very rarely at the cinema theather.

I don't watch TV (as in cable or terrestrial) but I use a TV (device) for movies. A couch setup will always be better than a computer monitor or a phone.

Yes, pretty much for me.

Nope, and it's been that way for decades. We don't even have a tv at home anymore

Recent years i have only used TV to watch anime (connected to my laptop via HDMI) or play PS3.

Television is outdated, now there is internet and youtube.

To watch shows and movies? No. I haven't watched a show or movie on a TV in like 9 years. I still use a TV when I want to use my PS5 or Nintendo Switch though.

I'd rather use my PC for shows and movies.

I still use a TV to watch stuff, but the last thing I watched on cable was probably Primal when it premiered. Only thing I still watch live on tv anymore is football.

Now when i visit my mom since she has no internet or cell service where she lives, I do watch satellite tv over there.

I have a 26" CRT and modded xbox to watch old movies and cartoons like ren & stimpy or the raccoons. It's pretty comfy. Refurbished the CRT a couple years ago too so it should still be good another couple decades.

Yeah. I use a TV as my PC monitor so all of my anime and other TV/movie consumption is on a TV.
