It's mostly because all the streaming services won't give you higher res and HDR unless you're using one of the boxes. You don't need the slop tho. Nvidia shield imo has been solid for over a decade now. I'm over fire TV and those cheap shitty no name boxes are even worse. I have no idea why people fuck with those. Even a fire TV is better than that lol.
