Copilot key will eventually be required in new PC keyboards, though not yet.

      At least on the PC, it’s easier to remap the buttons. What enrages me more are the TV remote controls with buttons dedicated to specific streaming apps. I mean… none of these services will outlive the TV itself. I’ll just have to look at buttons that do nothing for years.

          I need that for my Roku. I may just write an automation in Home Assistant that will switch to whatever app I programmed if I press the Paramount+ button. Unfortunately that means I need to install that app on the Roku itself.

        I personally find those useful, but I can never find the combination of services that works with my needs.

        There’s always like Vudu or Sling that just becomes a wasted button.

        I get your point but at least three of those services will outlive the tvs expected life. Netflix Hulu and espn aren’t going anywhere, at most espn will be rolled into Disney+ and a software update could point that button to it

        My TVs crackle and I heart radio buttons on the other hand…
