Yeah I feel like it differs by generation in Russia as well. My parents' generation and older would often have either TV or radio on in the background most of the time. My generation mostly considers the mere act of watching broadcast television a sin because of how much propaganda there is and how much more useful content, available on demand, is out there on the internet anyway. Those who do own a TV often use it as a big display for streaming/torrented movies and/or console games, with the antenna cable often not even connected.

It's the same in my family, with one exception. We sometimes do have TV on in the background, but the only permitted channel is TV Kultura -- news about art, museums, exhibitions, theatre, humanities, arthouse cinema, etc.
