So what did I buy

So, this allows you to avoid buying a "Smart TV"? If you can find a non-smart tv, you can spend extra on size and just have this $20 add-on?

This sound right?

That is correct. This is a wifi-enabled, app-driven device that plugs into your TV and offers more than the vast majority of smart tvs in terms of quality and diversity of apps as well as interface fluidity/ease of use. Maybe the bleeding edge TVs are different, but in general, smart tv offerings are usually not very good in terms of interface, and if a specific app isn't supported at time of purchase, it likely never will be. These devices typically receive updates for several years which include new channels/apps and a more refined interface.

This is a fake post with content that I am pretending is interesting to shy away from the fact that I somehow just double posted.
