Question: do you have to have a smart tv to get a firestick?
Answer: So no, you don't need a Smart TV to use a streaming player. However, if you have a Smart TV, you still may want to use a separate player because, generally speaking, the TVs often don't support as many apps as the players do. ... So the Roku 1 is a good choice if you have an older TV that doesn't have HDMI ports.
