Ordered one with the benefit of the Prime discount, don't think I would have done it for $39. At the higher price I'd be inclined to spend twice as much and get another Roku 3.
I'll hook it up to the one display that doesn't currently have a Roku attached. The discount price of $19 seems worth never using the horrible built-in apps on that display again.
That said, my expectations are low - even at $19. Amazon impresses me as uneven and lazy when it comes to everything but their core business.
It's stuff like the original Kindle Fire launching with the awful combination of no parental controls + one-click ordering or the Android Kindle app lacking basic display settings for ages and still lacking a consistent store experience.
Given that, plugging this stick in to find that it too lacks parental controls or runs some outdated or incomplete version of popular app like Netflix or YouTube would not surprise me in the slightest.
