a good quality set top box with a youtube app and web browser is all we need
Milan.
Edit: It's definitely not a set top box in any real way though as there's no TV tuner or anything in there.Comment

I'll have a look tonight and see if the Panasonic has a USB slot
Does the Fire stick come with a keyboard ?
By the way do you have a California, I'd rather get a California Ocean than an SuV but the Mrs doesn't want a camper

And no California here, unfortunately. My camper was actually a 1968 Bay! Sadly long gone now, but we still have the Wifes '68 Beetle - the new stuff can be lovely, though.Comment

If you don't want the subscription side of the offerings then forget Amazon, NowTV, etc. Get an android box and bluetooth mini-keyboard via Amazon. Nothing else to pay for.Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on.Comment

Yes. Our current LG TV stopped working with YouTube so we have a Fire stick for that now.
