App showdown: Roku vs. Chromecast vs. Apple TV vs. Fire TV vs. Nexus Player

App selection should be one of the biggest factors in choosing a streaming media player, because all the fancy features in the world don't mean much if you can't actually watch what you want.

The good news is that there's decent app parity among the major streaming media devices, including Apple TV ($69), Amazon's Fire TV ($99, or $39 for the Fire TV Stick), Roku ($50 to $90, depending on the model), Chromecast ($35), and Nexus Player ($99).
