The Shoutbox
Is this where I file a complaint about having a 5-year-old design the PS store interface?
Our huge Smart TV has a window that pops up along the left side of the screen for any of the apps. You can't actually browse much at all. As long as you already know what you want to watch, you can search for it with the search box. Otherwise, just scrolling around to pick something else is a nightmare. And this was not a cheap TV.

So I was glad when Xfinity added their own Netflix app to their new onscreen system. We're still stuck with the TV's terrible app for Amazon Prime, though.
I have an Android TV and, the Amazon one aside, all the apps are great. Netflix is as snappy as it is on a much more powerful games console. Mine even runs Kodi and transcodes my movie collection under its own steam, and (in computing terms anyway) it's a pretty modestly powered device.

It's the first time a smart TV has made sense to me because, like you say, they're usually grossly underpowered.
I don't mind their app on their own devices. (I use an Amazon Fire TV stick on the kitchen tiny TV.)

All the apps on our Smart TV are awful, though, even Netflix. I was so happy when Comcast/xfinity upgraded us to their new cool X1 service because it includes their own Netflix app thing and it's SOOOO much nicer than the Smart TV app was.
It's also got some of the most horrific UI I've seen in a supposedly 'A' grade product. I'm a Prime subscriber and have to press a button every time I load the app to filter out the non-Prime videos.

Even after I do that, the layout is awful.
Their app annoys me - There's a known problem if you're running the audio through a non-HD cable into your receiver, as I am with my TV and an optical cable. After a few minutes there is hugely annoying lag in the audio with anything HD you're trying to watch.

Cut to the app on my PS4, which has its audio going into my receiver via HDMI, and there's no lag at all.
I'd like it if not for the fact that none of their apps let you use Chromecast, because Google and Amazon are fighting over all that stuff.
So I ended up somehow with £12 Amazon video credit which was about to expire.

I ended up panicking and buying The Man Who Would Be King and some HD version of All The Presidents Men ... both films I own already.

Amazon Video is rubbish.
