Should we be rid of the standby button
The standby button on our T.V seems to serve no real purpose. Shouldnt we just turn the T.V off or is there some reason for the standby button that alot of us seem to miss.

Thankyou for your answer. I was unsure as to wether a TV had a computer on board and this answers my question. But does turning the TV off cause any harm to the TV or are we burning unneccessary energy to just save ourselves the 2-5 seconds that we'd have to wait to turn on our TV? Side: keep it

According to Energy Review, 8 percent of all domestic electricity used is used by electrical equipment in sleep mode. That's 800,000 tons of carbon emissions. The convenience is not worth that cost. Side: GET RID OF IT
