My TV died today and at first I was upset. Upon further reflection, I am okay with it. I’m not going to replace it. Perhaps this is the way?

    I don’t have tv, bit I do have one of those small portable projectors. I don’t need to dedicate space permanently to a TV when I also have a computer desk, but sometimes it’s nice to have a large display for a movie with friends, etc.

      I had been considering that when this one went. The timing is kinda decent cause I am going to be moving in a few months. Does the room need to be dark or is the brightness adequate for normal lighting?

        I’m very late to this discussion, but I’ve had no TV, only a projector, for about 10 years now. Simply put, the “black” in the image will only be as dark as your room. If there’s enough light that your wall/screen is gray, that gray will be the darkest contrast you see. I fully blacked out my projector room (dark walls and ceiling, blackout curtains) and it made a HUGE difference.
