Review: Roku Premiere Plus (and Premiere)
from What's New · host SpokenLayer
A few years ago, I gave my parents-in-law a Chromecast for Christmas. They needed an easy way to watch Netflix and Chromecast was the hip, hot new thing. This will be perfect, I thought. I was wrong. The problems added up quickly. Their Wi-Fi was spotty, so the Casting icon didn't always show up on their phones, which was tough since casting video from their phones was a strange new concept to begin with. They also couldn’t stream Amazon Videos; Google doesn't support Amazon's app. Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices
