I am not the most technical guy here but I use a Firestick for Netflix and another streaming service.

If someone only watches a few steaming services than I think a Firestick works great. If you want streaming plus multiple news, sports, specialty channels and a lot more I think it get's a little more complicated and expensive through a Firestick. It doesn't have the fluidity of cable to go in and out of an app to the same level that switching channels on cable does.

I am not on Ignite TV and I hope I can delay it a lot longer but a lot of people are wondering exactly what you are. What is the actual purpose of this thing? I really don't know but I would assume Rogers get's a little cut of people who subscribe to various streaming services through that platform, makes cable clients a little stickier and who knows what data they sell.
