Samsung’s artistic The Frame TV is currently on sale for $649
[ad_1] As always, The Frame’s appeal revolves around a painting-like design whose zero-gap wall mount, customizable appearance and always-on Art Mode help it feel more at home against your wall. While the 43-inch screen makes this better for apartments and bedrooms than suburban living rooms, it otherwise ticks many of the checkboxes for a modern […]

Netflix has shipped 5 billion discs

It is, however, still a money maker. […]

Who are you and why are you leaving old TVs on porches in Virginia?
[ad_1] Now that the televisions have been rounded up and “TV Santa Claus,” as the neighbors so cleverly dubbed the prankster, has been deemed harmless, we have a few questions — ten, actually.
