I have an Amazon TV box in the living room and a Firestick on the bedroom TV. Like them both.
I have Chromecast and a Firestick and we use the Firestick more than the Chromecast, but the Chromecast has proven valuable for some things. We have a OTA HD antennae and that gets us all the Broadcast stations (I think we have 54 total OTA) and we do have NetFlix and SlingTV. I can watch Sling on my phone and my desktop if the wife or kids are watching something else. I also have a NAS and use Comcast (bought my own modem and router) for the Internet. No wired phone service and I use Google Voice for the business phone. All in all, very happy and saving a lot of money.
The only content I could not get was Outdoor and Sportsman channel, but they are going to have an app for that in January, so I will be set.
We did get a Tablo, and frankly we do not use it very much. We did initially and still do for a few shows, but more and more stuff is available over the internet so recording OTA shows is not a big deal. If you want to record sports from broadcast, it is a good option.
We have Roku with Sling TV, Netflix and a O.T.A HD Antennae. It all works great for us !!
I have a roku you can have. We didn't like it much.
Oh yeah. I think I have a cast too. Unless you want to spend ten minutes finding what you want to watch, it sucks too. Netflix and chill.

Is that when kids used to play outside till dark, throw lawn darts, and kill shit with bb guns?Quote:
