This is my biggest issue with it. I can easily get Kayo and Binge on the TV and I watch them a lot but I can’t easily get Flash so I don’t watch it much. I would like to be able to easily have a way to flick on CNN or the Weather Channel etc… As someone mentioned earlier - a bundle option would be great too. ---

After my whinging in May, I noticed sometime in July that there was a Flash app on Android TV’s now, similar to the existing Kayo and Binge ones. At least it’s finally there and I can use it to easily watch things now when I want. ---
