It's not at all a scape-goat. It might be a minor player, but not a scapegoat. And as a minor player, it's been coasting under the radar. At least we try to keep tabs on Facebook and Google, etc.
Your defensiveness of Vizio is offsetting, as if covering for something. Should I be worried, and swap out my Vizio for a different company's television?
but you have to think about the economics of the ingest side... how much does it cost to, as a client, ingest every single netflix show. Not going to happen. Plus it violates lots of various companies TOS.
This is a non-issue, IMO, and people shouldnt worry about it to the same extent that one should worry about FB and GOOG and AAPL's abilities...
This is a scape-goat.
