Chromecast or Amazon Fire TV Stick

legend8887

I have a smart TV but I think it would be easier to have all your apps such as Netflix in one place. Should I get the Chromecast or Amazon Fire TV Stick?

Sorry about the category, I didn't know where else to put it.

Chromecast is what I use and it is awesome for streaming ! My only complaint is it is official supported on Google Chrome and not on Mozilla Firefox!

I have both, 

If you watch a lot of YouTube and netflix get the ChromeCast. 

If you want watch Amazon Prime video you have to get the Fire stick. Netflix also works well on Fire stick.

Do you have amazon prime? If yes - FireTV is good. If no, Chromecast

 

Do you want a real remote and not a phone? If yes, FireTV If you dont care, either is fine

 

If both, well, what one looks prettier and cheaper?
