My mother can't afford to keep DirecTV any more as she has piled on more expenses in the last few months and the $80 they want every month for increasingly fewer channels is just getting to be too much. I have an amazon prime sub and am considering getting a fire stick with alexa combo.

Do any of you have one that can tell me more about it? I get the gist of it being a thumb drive you plug into your HDTV's usb port to access Amazon video, but where does the Dot and alex and voice come into play? Basically I'm thinking of getting her a netflix sub and setting up an antenna so that she should get movies and local channels for $12 a month. She has poor eyesight and if the Dot can be used for voice commands, that would be great. But I know little about these things.
