Amazon Fire TV Cube: Home entertainment gets new voice

It’s no secret that TV viewing is on a decline for the simple reason that consumers do not have much control over the content. The pandemic has made the situation worse; there is incessant flow of news and information around the health emergency that we are grappling with. At times, this can get somewhat depressing. Even before the pandemic, I came across many families (at least in the big cities) that have done away with cable/satellite TV connection; some of the key reasons cited—there is no control over the content, content is insipid, boring and somewhat irrelevant at times. Instead, when it comes to entertainment, Amazon Fire Stick (a media streaming device which lets you stream video, install apps, play music, etc., on your TV) is the top choice for many households.
