Do I need a Smart TV to stream video?

Updated March 25, 2022 21:36

No, a Smart TV connects to the Internet to get a signal for your movies and TV shows. A streaming media player, such as a Fire TV Stick, TiVo Streaming Stick, or Apple TV works similarly and can make a regular TV work as a Smart TV for under $50.
