It's my birthday, and I want the upscaling, the single platform, the flexibility (sailing the high seas), but it's soooo old. $200? IDK

I don't think you can paint all Android TV boxes with the same brush. I have the 2017 Shield and it has been very stable and rarely needs to be rebooted.

For some reason my 2019 crashes when I start watching something in disney+ and change the volume during the first 5 seconds of the video. Otherwise its flawless(except for the ads on the home screen).

I don't use Disney+, so I can't speak to that, but I side-loaded FLauncher as soon as they introduced ads on the home screen.
