Crt is expensive to repair. You may have to sell a kidney to fix an old crt. Any slight advantage crt has is outweighed by the insane negatives. Scarce resources make crt expensive to make as well as time consuming

Obsolete tech that's "built to last"
You could buy a LCD TV and it last you from 3-7 years (assuming the screen doesn't burn out before then)...

Not really lcd has a longer life span. CRT can last long but gets issues with the color when one of the guns in it dies and that is incredibly expensive to repair

Dude, just stop. You're trying too hard. Also, we've had a Zeneth that my father payed for in 1980 finally give out in the early 2000's. Now way a lcd lasts that long.

You are clearly an outlier and most TVs that are crts are dying anyways so you have to get them repaired which is very expensive

Well, light gun games aside, anything pre-HD looks much better on CRT. Get over it.

LCD still does a lot of things better than OLED. For example they have much higher peak brightness and aren't prone to image retention.
