I'm confused. This is what they said?

"less viable option as time goes on" is pretty much "remains a viable option, increasingly not common"

?

This may just be me being idiosyncratic with vocabulary.

To me, "less viable" implies there some outside factor or internal failure preventing it from working. But non-internet appliances will continue to work just fine, if you can get one. I.e. it's a viable choice, just one with less and less availability.
