Whether you have a Fire TV Stick 4K or any other Fire TV device, I’ve rounded up some of my favorite tips and tricks to get the most out of them, including ways to browse faster, launch apps with ease, and avoid common annoyances. Read the full column on TechHive.

In other words, it’s following the same playbook as ESPN+, which launched earlier this year and includes no overlap with ESPN’s cable channels. I still expect this will change over time, as Disney renegotiates cable contacts and prepares for the next wave of cord-cutting. Disney hasn’t announced a price for Disney+, but has said that it’ll be cheaper than Netflix.

DirecTV Now’s disappearing discounts: AT&T wireless subscribers have until November 15 to lock in a $15 per month discount on DirecTV Now. The discount is currently available to customers with an Unlimited &More or Unlimited &More Premium plan, but it sounds like new subscribers will have to pay full price for DirecTV Now after next week.

This is one of several ways that AT&T’s been tightening the belt on DirecTV Now service. The company raised prices by $5 per month over the summer, and has also phased out giveaways of Apple TV and Roku hardware for new subscribers. The moves will certainly help make DirecTV Now more profitable, though subscriber growth has already collapsed as a result.

Roku’s next moves: AdAge published an interesting interview this week with Anthony Wood, the CEO of Roku. The main takeaway: Roku eventually wants to build a new interface that focuses more on content than apps.

Roku has already started moving in this direction with its new Featured Free section, which promotes ad-supported video from apps like ABC, Fox, Crackle, Pluto TV, and The Roku Channel. Wood says Roku would also like to aggregate video from subscription services like Showtime and HBO, and he didn’t rule out a subscription tier for The Roku Channel.

It’s unclear when this change might happen, but it’s long overdue in my view. While part of Roku’s appeal is in the simplicity of its app launcher, other platforms are doing a better job at making recommendations and helping you pick up where you left off on shows. Besides, Roku tends to be pretty mindful of making things easy to use, so when the company does get around to a new interface, I imagine it’ll do a fine job.

Still, Amazon’s sale on the Nvidia Shield TV is worth considering already. The model with just a remote (and no game controller) is on sale for $140, which is $40 off the regular price, and Amazon is throwing in a free Echo Dot speaker as well. This is a powerful 4K HDR streamer whose accessory support allows its to double as a smart home hub, Plex server, or over-the-air DVR. It’s also pretty good for gaming if you have a spare Bluetooth or USB controller to hook up.

Nvidia does say that it may have “additional specials for Black Friday and Cyber Monday,” and the current deal is available until November 26. You may want to wait if you’re looking to bundle the Shield with a game controller or SmartThings Link.
