      Hmm... It supports Plex. Awesome.

        I am trying to figure out the benefit of this device. I assume I would link it to a computer etc, but would still need wifi to access it. correct?

            Yes, the amazon fire stick requires wifi.

            For Plex, yes, you still need a computer but you can put DVD library on it (given enough storage) and never worry about your kids scratching up your disks, etc.

              It's basically a roku. You would plug it directly into your TV HDMI port. You would then connect the device to wifi on you TV. It's a great deal.

                      Is great deal a subset of crazy deal? i.e. can all crazy deals also be considered great deals? Are they mutually exclusive?

                      A Venn diagram would be appreciated.

                        • So this Amazon thing is pretty much a smaller version of the Apple TV, just without the ability to stream my iTunes collection?

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                            You still use iTunes?

                            • I just ordered one. Estimated delivery is Dec. 1.

                              While I imagine this device will be pretty nice (especially for $19), I really wish it had the ability to plug in headphones to the remote like the Roku 3. That is a really great feature.
