  I also use an air mouse with keyboard Like this

  I run a linux HTPC that runs Kodi so once it’s configured, you can just use the arrow buttons to navigate, not just the air mouse.

  $200 for a refurbished 20TB drive on Newegg

  The new ones were on sale for $270 so around $10-15 per TB. The best I can find is $40-50 per TB for SSD. Certainly not 7times more expensive but more like 3-5.

  Set up an openvpn server at a “home” with bandwith, and have family/friends route their Roku/streaming device route through a router with openvpn client back to the same “home” .
