I do wonder why people buy smart TVs instead of getting regular displays together with a Linux PC.

Say I do that.

Streaming can be done through the browser. Which frontend would I use to access the regular TV channels?

Sorry, streaming from a browser on a Linux PC is limited to 540x860 due to an inability to establish an HDCP chain. Have you tried using the TV's native Netflix app instead?

This is what piracy is for.
