Their tablets are perfectly fine content consumption devices that have only gotten better with time. Their phone is a bit of a joke. Their e-inks are class leading devices. And most people are reviewing the Fire TV Stick rather favorably in terms of speed, functionality, and playback quality. Also, as someone who owns the full Fire TV I can say that the video quality on that device, at least, is excellent and not appreciably different in any way from my Apple TV on the same television.

Clunky is an understatement. I used to do stuff like this YEARS ago to get my streaming content to my TV. Thank god the Dark Ages are over now that set top boxes are available.
