I have several Roku sticks, and I always plug them into a usb adapter that plugs into a wall outlet, because the TV usb outlets are never strong enough to provide sufficient power. With a Roku device, you can search the Internet and add any available streaming app that you can find. For awhile, they were blocking YouTubeTV, but not now.
