Reply to comment by Disastrous-Spell-135 in All the streaming boxes suck now - There are no good streaming boxes, and I blame everybody. by speckz

I stream everything originally had the Intel ComputeStick from years ago and just replaced it with one of the many options on Amazon. For about $250CAD you can get a stick that plugs directly into your HDMI Slot with 8GB RAM + 128GB space and is smaller than my cellphone, full windows 10 or 11 and just stream whatever you want...It really is simple. Plug a Bluetooth keyboard with the mouse pad combo and you never need to worry about streaming things again.

And then what pay for all your subscriptions ? I just open a browser and stream whatever I want..there is no cables showing the apple tv box is probably 3 times as big and much more restricted. People also have stuff like PLEX servers setup they're not having a tower sitting on the floor with an HDMI cable running to it....

Or download any other streaming app like Moonlight to your smart TV.

Yes, i pay for some subscriptions. I am not watching some janky fucked up browser stream in my home theater, thank you.

And for my digitised bluray collection i have a plex server. What, you think the apple tv cannot play a simple plex stream? The best plex player out there is only available on iOS, Infuse.
