I don’t know man I live in the Netherlands and it seems really 50/50 whether someone accepts “uncommon” meat. I personally feel weird thinking about eating dog/cat meat or crickets even though I understand that it is not a rational thought (assuming you’re fine with other meat of course).
Hey hey, check your facts, the Shield did get an update recently. They did in fact add ads to the home screen./s But I assume you mean a hardware upgrade.
But on a serious note I don’t see a reason why I need anything else than the Shield. It has flaws and bugs but generally plays everything. Combined with my Plex home server the experience is great. Can take the shield anywhere I go and stream content from my home server.
I play everything in 4k blueray remux without any problems (except for a memory leak every few weeks).
