While there’s some far-end “let’s eliminate cash” sentiments, a lot of the selling point of a CBDC is simply faster, cheaper settlement than current private platforms, so there’s a nonmalovent position.
Many central banks are pushing for the CBDC as a commercial or interbank-only thing in large part because if end consumers could just have an CBDC demand account with the Federal Reserve/Bank of England/ECB, it would squeeze out commercial banks.
There’s also a longevity mismatch. The streaming device goes obsolete much faster than the display. At worst, you’ve got a bunch of buttons snd icons for dead services or “your device is no longer supported” tutning your home theatre into a dead mall.
It’s sort of like when they used to make low-end TVs with VCRs and DVD players built in. Nobody was doing that on top of the line sets because you wanted to keep it for 10 years, and the DVD player would give out much sooner.
I think one brand tried to make a modular component to allow for smart upgrades, but without industry standards, it was a predestined dead end. Thry should have just out a slot in the cabinet sized to fit a Roku/Fire stick and let customers swap them every few years.
