G+_Kevin Spitzer (JaguarXT Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Apple TV has become the best streaming box (TV/Sports/News), TV app integration is great and is only missing Amazon Video. Plenty of apps also... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Kevin Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 That's a matter of opinion. I use an Amazon Fire TV box and it's just as good as your claims on Apple TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Eng. Jorge Santana Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Amazon and Roku are good boxes I just think Apple TV UI/performance/ease of use give it the top notch. What they are doing with their TV app integrating all apps in one is great. Huge miss is not having Amazon Video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Leo Allen Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 This is a very subjective statement. I personally will not budge from Roku -- I went from the Roku boxes to full-fledged Roku TVs (55 inch mounted above the fireplace, 36 inch in bedroom). The amount of "channels" available is almost endless with Roku. And as a long time cord-cutter, Plex (arguably the best media server) is the backbone. Everyone I know with Apple TV who try to use Plex have nothing but issues. In fact, I have friends who are admitted Apple fanboys that literally hate their Apple TVs.

G+_Eng. Jorge Santana Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I use pled without problems, key is having a well configured network. Agree Roku and Amazon boxes are good but if you try the Apple TV experience is just better all around IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Leo Allen Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 As I always say - whatever works best for you is all that really counts, Eng. Jorge Santana One other reason why I won't is that I simply have never cared for the Apple ecosystem. Many years ago, I was an iOS user, had a Mac Book, and I actually still own an iPad (though it's primary function is games for my sons), but it just isn't for me. In my opinion, perhaps the most untouchable thing Apple has to date is Garage Band - though I feel Microsoft is doing a pretty good job slowly closing the gap with Mixcraft.

G+_Kevin Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Eng. Jorge Santana I have zero issues with performance/UI on the Amazon so that's a mute point. It comes down to personal choice and preference as Leo Allen has stated. So you're point is still subjective but not really set in stone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
