Why?

Speaking of things I don't get: Why is everyone so determined to sell really expensive boxes that deliver internet video in a way that is less convenient than just accessing it with your PC? I can't understand what is being sold here. My PC "monitor" is a 42" TV on which I can watch DVD's, YouTube, Hulu, or anything else directly from the web at full screen and up-converted by the video card to 1080p. Why would I spend money for a device with less functionality and add to the box clutter under my TV?

Again, please use short words. I appear to be getting stupid.

Why? ... So you can BUY something else you don't need.

I remember when our economy was based on us making things and selling it to countries too screwed up to make their own stuff. That certainly has changed.
