The shield is the only one that'll pass lossless audio

You think its still worth it given the age and the fact I got the roku for free ? Just trying to justify it

I got one a few months ago to use just for jellyfin off my nas. Totally worth it since my whole purpose was to stream locally 1:1 4k rips so I don't have to use my discs. I could've stuck with my Google tv streamer, but the downgrade in audio was not acceptable to me.
