Lets say you need an income of at least ~$30k to reasonably afford a $1000-2000 TV. I would argue that is a little low to afford a TV of that price, but at 30k that would be around a month's take-home pay. Doable I guess.

That's a tiny fraction of world population than can even possibly buy that TV, and only a fraction of those that can will. Even in rich countries, a large number of households wont have it. Dropping a grand+ on a TV would be considered a high-end luxury to the vast majority of the world's population.

Not sure what your point is or why you'd go on this tangent about who can or cannot afford an OLED TV.

My point is simply that OLED TVs are much less expensive than they used to be. Only 4-5 years ago you had to spend over $5,000 to get one.

The reason your confused is that your point is orthogonal to the discussion that was being had, but the other poster is still trying to have that discussion.
