Can Smuggers advise me? Is Apple TV worth the money? Is it better than Amazon fire stick?

Personally I use a FireTV Stick as it’s cheaper, with the ability to load the CinemaHD app on it, which can scan the internet and aggregate streaming sources for a huge number of TV shows & movies not found on traditional services. It’s not 100% reliable all the time but it’s a great app for finding obscure content. You can also load VPN apps onto it if you’re security minded.

Given that most of the other apps are the same, the only difference then is integration with iCloud Photos/Services on the AppleTV, plus you can watch any content you’ve bought through the iTunes Store.

Probably I’d get a Fire TV Stick. You can download the Apple TV app to it. However I find that image quality is better with the Apple TV box - significantly so if you have a TV that supports Dolby Vision.

If you have a set-top box it may already give you everything you need?
