I thought I was going to have to buy a new TV, but I can control it with the remote to switch between inputs for cable and streaming (there is also an input for the dvd player, but my dvd player doesn't work).

I suppose I should buy another TV soon, considering that the sound goes out now and then for streaming through the Fire TV Cube. I was looking at TVs on BH Photo and Amazon. There is a 32" Samsung for $227 that might be good or a Sony for about $300. I do not want anything larger than 32" (my Sharp is that size). It appears from the specs that TVs are not as heavy as they were when I bought my flat screen around 2006-2007. 9.5 pounds.
If you haven't purchased your TV yet, Prime Day is sure to have some deals. It runs 11~12 July. Other stores also have their version of Prime Day to compete with Amazon.

See this thread for details.
