INTRODUCTION:
Smart TV Alternatives
When confronted by hype for new technologies, it is tempting to succumb and reach into
your wallet for the "latest and greatest". However, if you purchase, or currently have, a TV
without smart features or an older smart TV with limited options, if that TV is still working
well, and satisfies your picture quality needs, you don't necessarily have to buy a new Smart
TV. There are devices that allow you add Smart features to your current TV viewing
experience, at minimal cost.
Media Streamers
One way to add smart features is with a media streamer. A media streamer can
take form of a small box that plugs into your TV's HDMI port and connects to
your internet router via Ethernet/WiFi. If you have an older TV that does not
have an HDMI input, your options are more limited, but Roku's
Express+ media streamer provides analog video audio connections for those
cases.
Another type of media streamer takes the form of a stick that is slightly larger
than a USB flash drive, but, instead, plugs into a TV that has an available
HDMI input. The stick-type media streamer only provides WiFi connectivity,
so make sure you have a wireless internet router. The stick also needs to
connect to a USB or AC power source (cables/adapter included).
Blu-ray Disc players
Another practical way to add smart features to your TV viewing experience is
with a Blu-ray Disc player. In addition to playing physical media (Blu-ray
discs, DVDs, CDs) almost all Blu-ray Disc players provide access to a number
of internet streaming channels (depending on brand and model).
However, the internet channel selection is usually not as extensive as with a
media streaming box or stick, but it is certainly convenient as you don't have
connect both a media streamer and a Blu-ray Disc player to your TV - which
cuts down on cable clutter. If you are a fan of DVDs, Blu-ray Discs, and CDs,
but want to add streaming as an additional content source, a Blu-ray Disc
player may be the solution for you.
DVRs
In an interesting move, companies such as Channel Master, and TIVO market
over-the-air DVRs that combine reception of over-the-air TV signals, video
recording, and internet streaming in one box.
Just as with Blu-ray Disc players, the internet channel selection may be
limited, and recording features only work with the over-the-air received TV
programs, but it does provide another option that "cord cutters" can take
advantage of. However, the DVR option is more expensive than the media
streamer and Blu-ray Disc player options.
Stereo or Home Theater Receivers (Audio Only)
Although smart TVs and media streamers include some online music
channels, if you are a big music fan, you may opt to purchase a network-
enabled stereo or home theater receiver. This option not only provides access
to several music streaming services, but plays that music back through a stereo
or home theater speaker setup that provides a much higher quality listening
experience than those built-in TV speakers or even a TV combined with a
sound bar.
