    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.
    Good Shooting, MarkCO

    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.

    Remember when there was only 5 tv channels in Denver?

    Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?

    I've got two Apple TVs and I'm happy with them, but I'm also pretty entrenched with the Apple ecosystem. If I didn't have those I'd use my PS4 and PS3 as my main streaming devices and if I didn't have those I'd go with the Amazon devices.

    My Feedback
    Credit TFOGGER : Liberals only want things to be "fair and just" if it benefits them.
    Credit Zundfolge: The left only supports two "rights"; Buggery and Infanticide.
    Credit roberth: List of things Government does best; 1. Steal your money 2. Steal your time 3. Waste the money they stole from you. 4. Waste your time making you ask permission for things you have a natural right to own. "Anyone that thinks the communists won't turn off your power for being on COAR15 is a fucking moron."
