When the fire tablets are on sale for $30 I buy a couple. Not much else you can buy for $30 that will give the wow factor. LOL Always remember to check the gift/unregistered status if buying for a gift. If not it may sync all your content to the new one if you have an account. Some I want the content separate like quilt books from novels It's easy to register to any account

The only time I watch u tube videos is when I'm in the house and not in my sewing room, and I don't watch but maybe one/two every so often, in my sewing room I don't have anything like a tv, radio, etc., I like quiet. LOL

The Fire has external storage and a camera. I download videos and watch them if I'm somewhere with no wi fi.

I'm giggling about the OP--my hubs would be checking to see if I was ill if I had stuff other than crime shows on! Although I do watch DVR'd quilt shows, or try to, while at the long arm. Since I tend to get lost in time when I'm long arming and then can hardly haul myself up the stairs, I always turn the tv on there and usually watch NCIS or Law & order, but sometimes the quilt shows--problem is I can't really pay much attention while long arming so the crime shows basically just to help be gauge how long I've been working.

While sewing Friday, I was watching Triple Play videos on Missouri Star YouTube channel. I like to see how Jenny, Misty and Natalie start with the same pattern and make it their own. Usually Natalie's variation is my favorite.

I'm also a crime show watcher while I sew...it's something that can go in one ear and out the other for the most part. If I listened to "quilty" shows, I'd have to stop and actually watch what was going on and I think it would confuse me even more.

When I can't find anything I've recorded on TV I'll hit the Youtube on my TV and watch all my subscriptions in a relaxing recliner. Its nice to be able to see it on a big screen instead of my PC screen which isn't small by any means but just nice to see it bigger.

Sometimes I'll put on an old favorite movie while I sew because I can listen and tell what is going on without having to stop what I'm doing and watch. Usually, though, it's having Alexa shuffle a music playlist.
on the subject of Kindles, love 'em. I had 8-10 when I retired from teaching. (I'd buy 2-3 when on sale-about $40/each) Shared the extras with family, but kept 2 for myself. One is always charged. (I read at bedtime) My cousin was always on phone on Facebook, so she likes the larger screen of the Kindle.
