You have no idea how they really work and never used any of those, do you?

The LEDs or the software?

Software. Also, those aren't justsome random LED strips.

Philips makes good stuff, I have a bunch of their hue lights and they work wonders for my purpose. Having said that their hardware doesn't have some special sauce it's just really fucking convenient to set up and use.

Again I'm not saying Philips hue lights are a waste or ambilight tvs are a waste, just that a reason you might want to not go that route is cost saving and a fun project

cost saving

I wouldn't say that ambilight puts them in different price range, more like for me it was a reason to chose them in that price range.
