    Of course another option is to go down the road of getting IPTV on your stick, I wont say anymore than that though, you will have to research that one yourself.

    I really thought most of the apps for channels 1,2,3,4 and 5 would have been ready installed.
    Am I right in thinking they will be in the app store on the stick?
    My amazon 4k voice control stick, purchased a few months ago, comes preloaded with...

    BBC iPlayer
    Netflix
    Prime Video
    YouTube
    IMDB TV
    ITV Hub
    4
    My5
    Amazon Music
    Disney+
    UKTV Play
    Curzon
    Sky News
    BBC Sounds

    They tend to have "placeholders" for all the popular apps but when you click on them for the first time they will then download the complete app.
