  • If you are going to use this often, skip the stick and spend the extra $20. The stick is too slow.
  • Second generation stick isn't that slow. I was thinking of upgrading to the dongle (for $35 with the DirecTV Now promo), but all the bad reviews on Amazon scared me off. I think I'll wait for the next generation of devices.
  • In my opinion the latest Fire TV with the "dongle" is more of a downgrade than an update. It seems Amazon wanted to compete with the Google Chromecast but in their cost cutting frenzy they took out the SD card and used an inferior processor not to mention a very awkward form factor. Do try to find a previous generation square Fire TV which works great with most 4K sets.
  • Anyone happen to know if Fire TV products now have the Spectrum app? I've been rolling out Roku's around our home because the Spectrum app lets us ditch the montly box rentals.
  • Bit puzzled by the article when it says an HD OTA aerial is included with the 4K device. What's an HD aerial? How would an HD aerial be different than an SD aerial? I assume this is a US thing, and I'm curious. In the UK we use UHF for TV OTA transmissions. In the past we have used other frequency bands, but it's been UHF for a long time. For analogue in the past, and now for both SD and HD. So for us, a UHF aerial does it for all the things. So, what's this HD aerial all about then? Your HD not on UHF?
