And to be fair that graph is weird

-100%? If something lost 100% of its value it is now free? I don't think TVs are free now.



It is 95%, not 100%... and amazingly that looks accurate.

As an example, a 32" CRT with remote control (eg Sony Trinitron) cost about $1500-2000 back in 1997.

Today, you can buy a 32" TV for $85, delivered. And even though this will be "Brand X" and not Sony, it will have better picture quality, more functionality, be more reliable and use less power to boot.
