If they are patented, they can’t.

Well, some of us prefer the 360, Richard. This really shouldn’t bother you so much - it’s our choice.
You’ll have to face it sometime, technology moves on and old technologies die off. There comes a point where new technologies are incapable of being incorporated in older devices and you will be forced to get rid of it anyway because it doesn’t work any more. You just have to adapt.
You haven’t been forced to ditch your TiVo yet and maybe you never will. When the channels disappear (likely in 2035 at the latest) we will all have to move over to streaming anyway to watch the content we want.
