Streaming Wars Update -- April 19, 2022

Before we get started, Amazon's Alexa / Fire TV Stick is an incredible combination. I assume the Apple ecosystem and other "integrated systems" can do the same thing but I don't have Apple TV, Google TV, Roku, etc. But I digress. 

One can use voice commands to Amazon's Alexa to "change channels" / surf streaming services. It appears about the only thing Alexa can't do in this arena is change the volume on the TV set (one can use voice commands to change the volume on the Amazon Echo device). 

Now, back to the update.

With Netflix debacle today, I need to re-visit "streaming wars" again.
