I run the PLEX client on an Amazon TV stick and it does perfectly well, the stick itself is a bit slow to wake up from sleep when you first switch on, but for as cheap as it was I can't argue.

About the only annoyance with PLEX is that the PC/WIn client is either a crappy Win8 style paid-for app, or a free 'Media Center' app that has zero mouse control / keyboard only.

It's hard to use rentals for TV series that aren't on netflix/hulu; if you want to watch one of those torrenting is still your best option

nope, almost all the core functionality is free on the server side - the premium pass stuff is mostly fluff on top now.

Truth. The only Plex Pass feature worth paying for is offline/cloud sync (great for long flights or road trips).

why do people keep saying Apple has good UX again

So "taptic" is proprietary Apple speak for "haptic feedback" right

instead of going to all this trouble to simulate having a button that moves, they could have had their button actually move, and included a headphone jack

What's the advantage of Apple TV supposed to be over Roku again

Like, I've heard a lot of nebulous "it's just better" assertions but the only reason my Roku has ever given me to be dissatisfied is that the HBO GO app is bad and unstable (which is par for the HBO course AFAICT)



loquacius posted:

Apple TV is the obvious best choice if you are the kind of person who would own an Apple TV, is what I'm hearing


loquacius posted:

I would have to buy an Apple TV to perform this test so no thank you

Actually a hotel I stayed in recently had apple tvs in every room (it was a hipster hotel) and my main reaction to using it was "I am slightly annoyed by this UI being different from the one I'm used to and this remote doesn't have enough buttons on it" rather than "I can't believe how quick and responsive the Netflix menu is on this wonderful device!!!" or anything like that

I'm aware that that's not really a point against Apple TV, just sayin' the old "give it one try and you'll see how much better it is" scenario didn't happen
