Ahh... ok. I was thrown for a loop, re: DVR.

I can definitely see a response time on Roku TVs being ridiculously slow (dedicated streamers tend to be faster in general). For what it's worth, I find Amazon's system to be a bit... crowded. Roku dedicated boxes are super simple. And with Google TV (the new Chromecast with Google TV for instance), you can just put it in "App" mode.

But you can always search in YouTube for "Fire stick operating system" or "Fire stick User Interface" to find videos to see how it would work.

re: Firestick - as for Prime Day sales, wait until Black Friday-ish. They tend to discount the Fire sticks pretty often. I got my Fire Stick 4k (which I got for future hotel room stays... uh, pre COVID... since Fire sticks have an inbuilt browser for logging into hotel wifis) for like $25 on a random sale once.
