Understood. I have a similar box called TWBB which stands for "The Worlds Best Box" that comes with Kodi preinstalled and preconfigured. It's been working great, offering latest release movies and such but recently, the servers that have been offering up their streams have been dropping like flys so finding good streams with the latest movies has become a chore now. I have a feelling that they are being hunted down and being forced to shut down but not sure.

The nexus is the original one from google, and rumor has it that a new one will be forthcoming this year. It was selling quite cheap over here a few months back, on clearance, I suspect. And the Metracom, or however it is spelled, runs around $100 or a tad less on amazon. My husband actually bought one of them, because he wanted to experiment with Kody. Again, these are strictly set top boxes, more like the Apple tv in that respect, rather than being a full tv set. How android tv may differ in these boxes from android tv in your set, I have no idea. Both the shield and the metracom are advertised as coming with lolly pop version of android tv, so it seems like they should be the same, just based on that, and supposedly the two newer devices are in line for the upgrade to android 6.0.
