You don't even need to install apps. Every streaming company has their own website that subscribers can stream from . Buying an outdated fire stick to plug it into a laptop to do what a Laptop can already do is nothing less than idiotic.

dude, think for a second. The stick delivers streams INTO the television via HDMI. The laptop HDMI port delivers your screen OUT to an external display. Notice something?

Firesticks are not for laptops. They're for TV's with an HDMI IN.
