Apple TV (MD199LL/A)
It's an Apple TV
- Pros: It plays videos, music, and does what it's intended to do. It's small and portable which also makes it great.
- Cons: Very limited on app choices, would love to see a pandora app in the near future. It's also kind of slow if everything is on wifi.

SONY SMP-N200 Streaming Media Player with Wi-Fi Netflix Pandora & Hulu
Awesome media player
- Pros: Plays my HD mkv,avi files from my Cisco router media server (E3000 on Tomato) flawlessly over Wifi
Netflix works in Canada
Device power light is easy on the eyes
All types of audio and video connections (almost legacy proof)
Audio Remote app for iOS or Android from Sony
Picture and audio quality
Refurbished unit as new and came with new remote
Price - Cons: Cannot get US Netflix in Canada with simple DNS changes (a Sony and Samsung issue on certain devices research suggests)
- Other Thoughts: This unit is worth its full price for what it does so perfectly but at this refurb price it's a steal.
I ordered one for the bedroom and I am ordering one for my dining room sound system because it's cheaper than an air express and with the audio remote app on my iPhone or my wife's Nexus tablet, I can send my audio files from my router media server directly to the Sony. It's even cheaper than a decent wifi adapter alone plus the reception is excellent.
I have an Apple TV and a WDTV Live and I think this is in the same quality league. Yet at the present $50, it's a no brainer on this being the best value
BUY ONE, or a few!!!!

Brite-View BV-5005HD 1080p HD Multimedia Player / Streamer / Torrent Downloader
Well Made
- Pros: Plays just about anything as specs state, and can stream via network too.
- Cons: Ever since new, hangs, remote hangs like some conflick but if you either wait or just unplug power and reboot, it's great. Won't play WMA, have to convert first.
- Other Thoughts: I like it so well, I'm now looking at the newer Air SyncHD DX made by Brite-view. Wireless to two HD TV's.

Logitech 970-000001 Revue Companion Box with Google TV and Keyboard Controller
Great for not-Smart TVs
- Pros: There were, when I bought this, several add-on boxes for watching Netflix or listening to Pandora, YouTube or other applications. This one was far and away the best because it had a keyboard. It takes a bit to set it up (a few minutes) but once it's done it does the rest. Excellent for non-Smart TVs. You can use wifi or an ethernet cable. The keyboard is your wireless remote.
- Cons: It's not a deal breaker but even when off the cooling fan will never shut down. It runs constantly. I had this on a bedroom TV and it drove me nuts. I finally came to realize I had to unplug its power supply every night if I wanted to sleep. Oh, and some compatibility issues with its built in browser. You can watch YouTube videos because it's Google TV but not others
- Other Thoughts: I paid $100 for this over a year ago. A refurb for $65 is good deal

Digital-to-analog Converter for Analog Tvs
Works and cost is low.
- Pros: The product works well as long as you got a quality antenna to go along with it.
- Cons: Don't really have any complaints. The products was competitively priced and it works.
- Other Thoughts: This was a gift for someone who isn't really bright. They have no issues using it. It's simple. Also, keep in mind that this is not for service providers like Comcast, DirecTV and such. It is simply to get basic service to work from over the air stations.

Logitech 970-000001 Revue Companion Box with Google TV and Keyboard Controller
Trying to fail and succeeding
- Pros: Nice Picture quality.
Very nice keyboard.
Does You tube very well
Good NetFlix
Good Web browser - Cons: Biggest Issue is crippled Android market place support. I want to run HomerunTV and it isn't compatible.
Hulu Blocked so is CBS and ABC.
Can't find my Western Digital Nework (My Book) drive.
Came in poor physical condition. - Smelled like cigarete smoke - looks like dried tooth paste on the front -unit scratched up - dust caked to the air vents.
noisy internal fan
Only way to turn the unit off is to unplug it.
- Other Thoughts: With all of the shortcomings I would be happy it was a more fully featured android. My tablet does so much more. There is considerable frustration when there are android apps you love to use and they just flat out are not availible.

Logitech Review
- Pros: I have 3 of these. The great thing about it that it comes with a keyboard. You just type what you want not move a cursor around the screen and selecting individual letters. It works well and gets used often in our house.
- Cons: It does have to be rebooted occasionally.
