Retailers don’t, but those $300 60" TVs cost manufacturers more than that in parts and shipping. They are 100% making up for it in LTV from your data, that’s why some are trying to make it impossible not to use them when not connected to the internet.
They do not sell TVs at a loss lol.
Look at an major TV manufactures books and the TV part is a loss, the income they get from the TV is selling you to advertisers.
