Apple’s executives are strongly against the idea of launching a ‘cheap’ TV stick, but a report says that it is the only way to gain traction

          Ok this made me chuckle out loud.

          The ports are actually kinda small.

      This is built into Roku now. I can AirPlay to all my TVs, and I’ve never had an Apple TV.

        My experience with Airplaying to a Roku-based TV is that it isn’t as smooth. E.g., screen mirroring a Mac had noticeable mouse lag, whereas it was pretty buttery smooth with an AppleTV.

        Maybe newer Rokus have addressed that problem, though.

          I haven’t tried with a Mac, but it works well with my iPhone. My TVs are at least a couple years old.
