Auto play is the worst.

I also hate the turning on chimes

Not auto-muting when restarted/woken up

Blue led

Bright electronics.

It seems that everything is designed to scream at the user.

Black marker really helps to tone down blue LEDs btw.

Did that with the TV in my bedroom. Even the red stand-by led was impossibly bright. It turned out that the remote sensor was located behind the same glass :/
