What's up with the Netflix app permissions?

This is the only app I've seen that wants the "Device & app history" permission. It "Allows the app to view one or more of: information about activity on the device, which apps are running, browsing history and bookmarks". What legitimate use could they possibly have for this? It seems to me like this would allow Netflix to track everything I do with the device, and possible other devices depending on what is synced from my Google account. I was thinking about trying Netflix again after not using it for a few years, but now I'm not so sure.

Non-Official Gamepads and the Nexus Player?

I'll keep it simple, has anyone tried using anything that isn't the official gamepad with the Nexus Player?

I was thinking about trying this:

Patec® Bluetooth Gaming Controller Joystick Gamepad for Android Smartphones and Tablet PC - Black by Patec Permalink: http://www.amazon.ca/dp/B00JDC5NJ4

Edit: Found the amazon reviews of an identical product by the same product, some say it requires an unnecessary app... so I'm wondering if I should run for the hills on that particular product: http://www.amazon.ca/Bluetooth-Wireless-Controller-Gamepad-Joystick/product-reviews/B00JDC5OKW/ref=dpx_acr_txt?showViewpoints=1

Android tv box that runs alongside cable/satellite?

I'm in the market for an Android TV box and I'm wondering one thing. I'm really impressed with what Xbox One does. In case anyone's not familiar, Xbox One has an hdmi input, an hdmi output, and while you're on your xbox you can pull up your tv signal. This allows you to switch between using the device (the Xbox) and watching tv, without switching between inputs. Is there such thing as an Android tv box that works like that?

Need a hand

I recently purchased the Enjoy Quadcore TV Box, it came preinstalled with a bunch of stuff (like Kodi). I am having a hard time getting it to load. I often get the error one or more items failed to play. check the log for details. This error pops up whenever I am attempting to stream something. Any help resolving this would be greatly appreciated.

Nexus Player and the Amazon Appstore

Just curious for the early adopters...does the Nexus Player support installing the Amazon Appstore?

The FireTV supports the Google Play Store sideload, so I'm curious if the Nexus Player can do the inverse.

Showbox on Android TV?

I really like the Showbox app, which I use to stream shows from my Android tablet to TV via Chromecast. The playback is often very choppy, and at some times completely unusable (due to spotty wifi in my house). Does anyone know if Showbox can be installed on an Android TV device? If so I would be able to cut out the middle man and see much improved playback (especially on a device with Ethernet). Thanks.
