Which streaming device is the best, and is capable of streaming the 3 major platforms that are already on board with the ACCN?
 
I don't know if it makes any difference to you, but for now Disney+ will not be available on Amazon's equipment. That may change in the future.
 
I use my laptop hooked up to the TV, don't know if that counts.
 
Equipment? My Samsung TV connects directly to Hulu, Amazon, Netflix, Plex etc. Still have a Firestick that works well when I need it but that’s not often. I found the Firestick to be better than Chromcast which was my first streaming device.
 
FireTV stick is underpowered.

Applets is overpriced.

Roku has been in the game the longest and they are best optimized for TV in my opinion and I’ve used them all.

The fire box and cube are much better than stick. I only use the stick for my outside tv.

Yeah he had the stick in the list. Roku is a stick on the same price level as the Fire stick. Box and cube are more expensive.
 
Firetv 4k can be an OTA DVR and still stream 2 of the 3 main services.. since Amazon competes with YouTube can't stream that one

Kodi is the bomb on it though
 
Appletv is the best. But it’s the most expensive generally. Can sometimes get them with promotions when you join a new service though. I got a 4K for free when I signed up for 3 months of DirectTV Now a few years ago.

Use fire stick on my second tv so they won’t interfere. I like it.

Roku interface has never agreed with me.
 
Roku and firestick, but hulu app is better on roku than firestick. No idea why, but on my roku it plays the show in the background even while u navigate the guide which is nice. My firesticks dont do that they just show a green background.

As far as ytv and hulu. They are about the same. Each with its own benefit. No contract. Try one. Then try the other. And decide
