I use a PlayStation 4. It has client apps for all the things I want to use. And if you’re a little savvy, it can also be used for watching DRM free content (e.g. streaming from a media server, watching from an inserted USB drive, etc.). It's the laziest option to get most of what I want.

I have a PS4 sitting around collecting dust - I’ll have to give this a try! Thanks for the suggestion

If your TV and remote support HDMI CEC, you can even control the PS4 mostly fine with just the TV remote. Not enough buttons to play games, but for browsing videos, I find it works.

My original inspiration was that I wanted to watch Netflix with a non-crappy remote! Playing the occasional video game was just a bonus :)

A non-crappy remote that has to be constantly plugged in for charging..

Does PS4 support any streaming game services?
