They should make TV and Music apps for Sony Playstation and Xbox One.

I know a lot of people use these devices for streaming music (even while gaming) and video content. All major content providers have apps on those platforms.

Except my Samsung TV (I think a 2017 model) doesn't open programs anymore. I launch them, error try again. Resetting the TV, factory defaults....nothing works. Reinstall apps, can't...error. Oh well. It guess it's a dumb TV.
