I'd say 1TB will ensure you have sufficient space for all your app data.
The CCwGTV 4K is pretty old and showing its age. I have two of those and the new Google TV Streamer. The Google TV Streamer has its own issues if you don't curate and re-encode your media, like I do. Same with Amazon Firesticks. Both have issues with Dolby Vision due to bugs with their Mediatek chipsets.
On a budget, the Onn TV boxes are great value. But I'm not sure what their availability would be like for you in the UK.
Pretty much any Roku stick/box is a solid choice.
Normal 12100 is £30 but will get it if you say it’s better to have it.
Looked into that Onn TV. You can get it but on ebay from USA and it’s more expensive then firestick 4k max.
Will look into roku or might wait till Black Friday and get shield.
About re-encoding my media, where can I read about it (how to do it and what to encode into for most compatibility) ? Could that be automated?
Again thanks for all the help and sorry for all the questions.
