I live outside of a metropolitan area and am finally getting fiber internet to the house in a couple weeks. Gonna finally tell Directv to pound sand, plan on going to youTube and just stream.
Tell me what I need in a new TV, I haven't bought one in about 5 years and don't keep up on technology at all.

Unless you really want a new TV go the cheaper route and get a fire stick / Roku / or Android TV box.

there's a pretty significant difference between a $300 65" and a $1,000 65" these days.
maybe the $300 one is fine for you, but at least read up on the trade-offs.

its a big room, currently have a 65", plenty of room on stand for a 75, so definitely going with that size.
Was kinda wondering if OLED is always better than LED. Looks like I can get 120MHz clock speed now a days so will do that also.

- Budget?
- ideal size?
- will it be in a bright room with lots of windows?
- do you have a streaming box of some sort already?

The advice is to buy a nice tv, but also a separate set top box (Apple TV, ROKU, Fire TV, Nvidia Shield, etc)
You do not want your primary streaming to be on the actual TV.
