" The WHOLE THING was TUBE SALES, and NOTHING ELSE.
Usual expected tube life was under 1000 hours-- usually about half that."
That's not true. I had plenty of audio gear back in the day that saw 5,000-10,000 hours of service without a failure - guitar amps, preamps, integrated amps. Most televisions also ran their tubes at or above the manufacturers' op points and gave similar service. Lots of people can remember a TV lasting close to ten years without new tubes, probably well over 10,000 hours.
