Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I've cut the cord. Still love Dish, just not the bill. The Amazon Recast, was the missing piece. With it, I can record, CBS, ABC, NBC, FOX, Me TV and watch the recorded shows on any of my 6 TV's with various forms of the Fire TV Devices. Not that Amazon needs my defending... but I feel the need to address some of the complaints by folks that are mostly not up to the task of using the product. 1. Can't get the battery cover off the remote. I've experienced it.... used a single edged razor blade to start it.... and never had another problem. Heck I have to use pliers to get the Kraft salad dressing lids off... so I feel your pain. 2. Buffering... If your using the free modem that your ISP gave you, you are asking for problems. I've got a Linksys 5400, better part of $300... but I've got about 75 wifi devices... no problem handing out a great stream of my Fiber Optic Internet. 3. No Auio, No Video... you've got a defective TV or Fire Stick.... use another TV and a DVD/Blue Ray player to figure out which and replace. Hopefully it's the fire stick. 4. Complaints that you have to pay for content you thought would be free. Locals... Fire Recast if antenna gets it. Direct TV Now if not. 5. Complaints it won't run You Tube TV.... I can envision that could be frustrating. I envision Amazon will eventually support it, if it takes off... or I've looked at You Tube TV and all it's content IS available elsewhere. 6. Over Priced? If there are other cheaper products that meet your needs buy them. The best way of getting Amazon to "hear" you is with your wallet. 7. Didn't hook to my 3 receivers.... (volume)... sorry but it hooked brain dead easy to my 2 Pioneers and 1 Sony.. 8. In app interface funky.... I don't understand this one. I've used Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime and a couple of others on various devices... it seems as though the app interface is by service (Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime etc.) not by device ie Firestick, Roku, Apple TV. I could be wrong. 9. Won't warrent the product.... there is a warranty period... they will for that time... or buy an extended warranty. I suppose I'm an Amazon Fanboy. 8 echo dots, 2 echo shows, an Echo Connect Amazon Recast. With Echo I can turn off or on every light in my house. Start my wife's car. Open the garage door. Turn on TV's get the news.... A very enjoyable device.
