I think the fact that regular stores are now stocking high-seas set top boxes is more proof that streaming is too overpriced now and media companies are too greedy.

I don't think they're stocking these boxes. A lot of retailers let anyone list products on their website - just as Amazon allows third party sellers to list products. The one I found on BestBuy's website says "Sold & shipped by Evolution Blazed Inc"
Article seems to indicate at least one model can (or, could... maybe Censys has notified them and they were pulled) be bought off the shelf in store at Best Buy
> In a recent video interview, Ashley showed off several Superbox models that Censys was studying in the malware lab — including one purchased off the shelf at BestBuy.
Back in the heyday of torrents and burnable optical disks, retail DVD players could usually play random video files procured from the high seas.
They sure did, but what they didn't have is a built-in mail-order bootleg DVD catalog!
