I've not quite got my head around what the Fire TV Stick *is* and *does*.

Anyone care to explain?

It connects a normal TV, if it has an HDMI input, to the Internet. That
then allows you to stream pay for films and TV programs you might have
missed onto your TV (ITV Hub, UK TV Play, BBCi etc.). Some software
called KODI can be also be installed, which then allows you to watch
much, much more.

It comes as either a stick, or a larger more capable box, each with a
bluetooth remote.
