I have a 4K 120Hz TV that I have blocked from internet access on my router (because it is spyware with no way to turn off the built in microphone) and I have a desktop that supports 4K but I don’t want to run my desktop into the ground streaming on it all the time.

I’d like one that isn’t American I guess if that really matters (seems like it kind of does) but I noticed options are limited unless you want to spend $600 on a mini PC which I don’t.

I’d like to spend like $200 max if possible for this if possible.

    I think it’s worth mentioning to OP that Vero is based on Kodi, and streaming platform support there is innofficial on a best-effort basis.

    Which, for Netflix, meant I had to log in again every few weeks, the login process involved doing it on a computer and transferring files, then there was a recurring 2GB download of Widevine to be able to play content, and then it sometimes worked.

    It’s a problem created by streaming platforms and they should be blamed for that situation, but maybe it’s worth mentioning that in a thread where someone is asking for a streaming box.
