    That’s such a cool and novel opinion. Wow. My Android TV does everything I need it to right out of the box. Never fucking shows me advertisements, and actually made it easier for me to stop paying for an overpriced Hulu subscription.

        I don’t really understand the hate for Android TV. It’s pretty obvious to me (since I use both) that they’re trying to compete with Apple TV. Android TV has a lot of great settings and features. When I’m not doing anything with it, it automatically shows a screensaver of my choosing - just like Apple TV does. I have quick and easy access to the movies I’ve purchased on my YouTube account as well.

        Any assumption that Android TV will force ads on its users tells me they haven’t used it.

            Cool. I’m going to continue enjoying an ad free experience on my TV, and people in this thread can continue using shit platforms that force ads all they want.

            As if you aren’t looking for the same functionality mine comes with out of the box.
