> You're making a bold assumption, that someone wants to wear this headset when relaxing.

Raises hand. I'm in for that. I'm a VR fan but my soapbox has always been that AR is the true future.

> Also, a TV can be watched by multiple people, and a home cinema will obviously deliver better sound.

In the same way that when the iPhone came out there were individual devices that could do each feature better than the iPhone could, yes :)

If you look at video consumption, "individual" devices (phones, tablets, laptops) make up about 50% of viewing time. TV the rest. I don't think the multiple people angle is going to kill this considering how much content is consumed individually already.

A home cinema also has to be researched, purchased separately, takes up space, etc. Any pair of $200 Bose headphones sounds better than the old iPhone ear pods...and yet...

> it's insanely hard to replace the simplicity of text buffers and a keyboard.

We're talking about replacing monitors, not text buffers or keyboards!
