I dunno, I see no need for Alexa-enabled earbuds, personally.

I use Amazon music a lot, think it would be nice for that feature

Eddy’s gonna have a hard time whispering “Alexa, play Katy Perry” so that nobody else hears him.

Psssh, I have my Alexa rigged out back so I'm always yelling to her. Neighbors are all completely aware of me yelling for George Michael.Eddy’s gonna have a hard time whispering “Alexa, play Katy Perry” so that nobody else hears him.

Me: "Alexa, what's the weather going to be like today?"
Alexa: "Say 'what' again. Say 'what' again, I dare you, I double dare you ****, say 'what' one more god damn time!"

do they have other voices too? I fight with my Alexa way too much, a different voice may make our relationship a little better.

Echo Studio looks interesting. I may actually invest in that since my daughter uses it so much to listen to music and dance to.

My wife thinks I'll use the clean version of Samuel L. Jackson's voice on Alexa.

That's exactly what it sounds like. It's got a great feature set, so I'd love to see it in action in person.so is that pretty much all of their stuff in one? big speaker that controls everything?Echo Studio looks interesting.

Still can't figure out how to change my DNS. I think I just wasted $30 on yonder.tv.
Armstrong told me to download the Plume app and I'd be able to change it there. It's not even connecting to that.

If you were choosing between a 65" OLED and a 75" LED, which way would you go?

OLED's are much more susceptible to screen burn in, which is a concern to me given how every network basically implants their logo full time in the same location on every show. LED will be better for brighter rooms, so I wouldn't consider OLED unless it was in a dark room anyway.If you were choosing between a 65" OLED and a 75" LED, which way would you go?
Which sets are you looking at?

That's my worry with OLED. Plus, the TV this will be replacing gets used hard and I don't know what the longevity is like on OLED's.
I saw a pretty sweet deal on a LGC9 65" OLED which has incredible reviews, but it's smaller and more expensive than the LED I've been considering, which is the TCL 6 series 75". I know the TCL isn't a top of the line screen, but the price makes it hard to pass up and if I'd want to replace it in 3 or 4 years, I wouldn't feel sick about the money.

That sets seems to have good reviews on the technical specs. At a quick glance, the only thing I don't like is the design of the frame and bezel; old school boxy. But that doesn't really matter.
What's your cable source? Only 1080 content, or do you also have 4k content?

I have comcast cable. My viewing habits are mostly cable for a few TV shows, some streaming (Netflix and Prime) and I have a big DVD and BD collection. I recently started buying Ultra HD discs to be more future proof.

Gotcha. I'd be all-in on the 75" set, personally.

Thanks, guys! That's what I was leaning toward too. I suppose I just wanted reassurance that I wasn't making a mistake.
