          I've got one. The fire stick is just that much faster and easier to use.

            Wonder why Amazon wont play nice with Google products and services.
            If the google person's quote is accurate that is.
            They two companies dont even really compete except for those stupid g-man sponsored listening devices, Home and Alexa.
            Prime and Youtube are sort of competitors. I havent watched youtube in years excpet for the odd tutorial video. I watch Prime every day.
            Just dont see why the two cant get along and make gobs more money.
            This will probably hurt Amazon more than google.

                It will only hurt Amazon if you can’t get prime on Roku

                  Roku Stick. It's good but not great. They've been adding stuff like crazy to the OS and it's just been bogging down.

                      Fire Stick is at least usable with the recent updates. The Roku not so much. I might pick up one of the new Rokus.

                        I like using Kodi on my laptop and then Miracast it to my TV. Easy, cheap, unlimited possibilities.

                                  That's because they can be sued, and the government - well it can be, but to no real point other than hurting the tax payers.
