TV and Price Fixing

I have a nowTV box. I always wanted a stick! and now they do one, I'm thinking of getting one for my parents. What are the disadvantages of the stick? Am I missing something? Do they plug into a HDMI Port ? Do I get anything different with the yellow button version?

When the Now TV price hike was highlighted back in the summer, we went online to cancel, and managed to get 3 months for £3.20 a month for Sept, Oct & Nov.

For cost and TV usage reasons I've binned Virgin TV and returned the box (kept BB), moved to Freeview through existing aerial (never used it before). I also ave a Smart TV and Firestick.
