This mini pc stick is just wanted I needed. A true streaming media player! Nothing fancy. My current setup includes a Samsung hdtv,  amazon fire tv, and a sony smart blu-ray dvd player all connected to a Sony A/V hdmi receiver. The reason I picked up this mini pc is that now I am able to stream anything, as if I'm on my laptop... because it's a real pc! The amazon fire tv and sony smart blu-ray has limitiations on what you can stream. You have to settle w/ the available streaming apps they support. Most cable tv service providers offer streaming of their content online and also offer mobile apps.  The amazon fire tv & sony smart blu-ray does not support the mobile app for my service provider (Dish). When there's no content that interests me while browsing through Netflix, Hulu, HBO, Amazon Prime... I can now jump on my mini pc and accessing anything I can find, including porn jk... I can now go to my service providers site and stream ALL content that I subscribed to now!I still appreciate the simpleness of my amazon prime tv for accessing Netflix, Hulu, etc, but this mini pc was just the missing link to my now complete set for streaming media.The product itself is excellent. Build quality is great and wifi signal remains strong. HDMI connection is crystal clear. I love it. If all your looking for is to be able to hook up a windows pc to your tv without the bulkiness of a desktop/laptop or the intermittent connection issues using the mirror feature on your laptop... this is it!No more headaches, no more limitations!***Note***For those hooking this up to an hdmi receiver to get sound, this is what you do: Windows 8.1 (same for W10)You have to let the pc recognize the a/v receiver as a playback device option. If you don't see it in the Sound settings Playback options, just keep the HDMI connected to the pc and receiver (make sure it remains on)... then reboot the mini pc... go back to the Sound settings and your receiver should show up in the list. If it does, select it as the default playback device... you should be good.
