| LIFE I may be able to watch Bama game!

I purchase an Amazon Fire stick yesterday! I got it all hook up but I have to wait till tomorrow before trying it out. My service plan reset tomorrow. It has ESPN, Watchespn, Sling, movies channels. I know it may cost me some more money to watch it, but I think in a long run it will even out. As some of you know I have been talking about doing this and yesterday saw the Fire stick and bought it!

If you find the FireStick is too slow or laggy for your needs, try a Roku instead. I have had much better luck with Roku than the FireStick I bought. Others swear by their FireSticks.

Can install apps on roku and firestick that give a ton of free viewing.

FireStick supports sideloading of Android apps (although not all work properly since it is a custom version of Android it runs).

Roku has more apps with free content (including an easily usable YouTube app).

Well I did get to watch the game. I did hit the wrong button and it came up Spanish, had to find the English one. :shock: Well it does lag behind, the radio was a good two minutes ahead. I can handle the freeze of the game, well I don't think I could if, it's the LSWHO, and Auburn game. I started out with 95% of my 20GB and after the game I was left with 59%. I will have to buy more before the Mizz game.

If you can handle it maybe cut down the quality on the stream to save data.
