Firestick

[jennyjoan]

Having the firestick turning my TV into a Smart TV has been incredible. I enjoy many many documentaries and YouTube on the TV is ideal and I'm lucky in that most? of them have had subtitles. I haven't needed to tune into the others just yet.

Recommend it so much.

Jack - you just plug it into a HDMI port at the back of your TV - I did get my nephew to do it but after it is done you have options of looking at various apps. Mine is as I have said at the moment YouTube - I enjoy documentaries of which there are many - you know the olden days per se. Might encourage you to enjoy TV a bit more. Also my Firestick was £29.99. Worth every halfpenny. I have enough to watch via it so don't subscribe - no need to for me anyway.

Chris, would a firestick make a Vrgin Tivo box redundant?

[Buenchico]

^^^ No, Danny, because it doesn't have a recording function.

[Zacs-Master]

Maybe what danny means is that most programmes which he (or other people) recorded are available 'on demand' thru the stick?

[bednobs]

it depends what you normally watch on your TiVo box I suppose
