Just checked out AT&T's website. Looks like it is what the current owners of my prospective house is using.I’m about 99% certain it is.

Can someone give me a rundown of the different streaming devices?
I have a Roku on one TV and like it. I have an old Apple TV on another TV and don’t like it as much as the Roku (mostly just the interface and tinyness/functionality of the remote), but I’m assuming Apple has improved their product since we got this one like 7 years ago. Although I do like being able to pair my iPhone and my Apple TV so I can stream what’s on my phone onto the TV.
I hear a lot of people talking about a couple others like the Amazon Firestick, etc...
I have the amazon prime app, Netflix and YouTube tv on my Apple TV devicesTo me, there’s really only two devices worth having, with Roku being the clear #1.
I previously had an Amazon FireTV (not a stick) after grabbing it for like $50 during a Black Friday sale. Great device, was pretty quick to navigate around menus. The Stick plugs into the TV and is allegedly slower to load and stuff. Previously, Amazon devices did not allow you to download YouTube TV as Google owns them and those 2 (AMZN, GOOGL) are competitors. My FireTV also somehow died during an update.
I bought a Roku because there’s no restrictions on what platforms I can stream (allows YouTube TV) and the “versions” are really simple. There’s a Standard Def, HD, and 4K version the way I understand it. I bought the HD one for $60 and love it.
I don’t have a 4K TV and am not sure if too many things are streamed in 4K yet (maybe Netflix and YouTube TV?)
You can also use your PlayStation or Xbox to stream if you have one of those in the house.
Apple TV had pretty bad reviews from the “cord cutting” community and may have blocked BOTH amazon prime / video applications and YouTube TV. early on, I think it mostly forced you to buy movies and shows on iTunes for terrible prices.

AT&T internet service at my house sucks so very much. I darning hate it. End of DTV contract in July means end of AT&T altogether.HD signal takes about 4mb/sec to run properly. 4K takes about 24mb/sec. There is no substitute for bandwidth.
Be careful with AT&T on what they say and what the actual product is. Often they will claim a particular level of bandwidth, and the actual level is considerably less during peak time. Insist on a high minimum bandwidth. It might cost more, but it's worth it, at least to me.

Do all of the TV’s have to be smart TV’s to do that?YouTube TV has the best package (and all the football sports channels) for $40/month.
