> Because manufacturers will earn more than your 100$ with ads and all other

Is there any evidence that this is the case?

[0] indicates they earn some 10-20$/year for vizio and 40$/month ([sic], article probably meant year) for Roku from advertising. With a lifetime of a TV at about 5 years this puts you in 100-200$ extra territory.

How much cost do the extra electronics impose?

Very close to 0.

TFA provides the evidence that they profit more from this that from what they get from the hardware itself. So more than $400 over the tv's lifetime these days ?
