    I had been thinking about buying an Amazon Fire Stick or something similar like a Roku. However after looking at what Amazon Video has to offer in Ireland there doesn't seem much point. There's something like twenty titles available and most of them aren't even to my taste.

    I've been looking at other sites to see what's available. there's one called Crackle which is supposedly like a free version of Netflix that's supported by ads. However all I can see available there is something called 'Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee'. That's it. One crappy programme.

    I have Vodafone TV and can watch Netflix on that so Netflix aside are there any sites (either cheap or free) around that has decent content that could be viewed in Ireland and that a Fire Stick or Roku supports? Or would it be a waste of €40 or €50?
