    Sling TV Tests Fox-Anchored Multi-Stream Service

    The deal breaker for me and Fire TV is that it won't work with an IR remote. That means I can't use it with my universal remotes.

    Stacking Components on Top of Hopper?

    Consider this, its not just the hopper that may overheat. Whatever you place on top of it will run hotter because of the heat coming off the Hopper and rising up into the box on top. Avoid stacking components, the resultant heat related problems are unpredictable.
