Samsung is a great company to be a fan of, they're the Sony of this generation, a huge conglomerate that makes everything you would want to improve quality of life. But while they are great at looking ahead, they are absolutely terrible at maintaining backward compatibility or supporting new features on old devices.

Sure, you can argue this is the hook to get you to upgrade, but I think it's also hurting the adoption rate for some of these features and may eventually upset customers to the point they look elsewhere.

I know first-hand having bought a high-end Samsung D7000 HDTV, one of their first real pushes for the whole SmartTV thing. It's very poorly supported, slow, clunky, with few updates. Even something like streming of Amazon Prime content was promised at one point but totally abandoned now.

Anyways, long story short, don't expect Samsung to fix or patch in anything you don't get when you purchase your device. They're too busy steaming ahead to see what got trampled and forgotten along the way.
