This is what makes me sad about cutting the cord. I want 1 system that provides:
1) PS Vue
2) Central repository to hold/download repository of purchased content or blu-rays
3) Music content (Apple Music or Amazon Music, etc)
4) Be able to accept AUX in to get my digital antenna signal for OTA TV.
I guess the closest thing is Amazon Fire TV or PS4? I really would love to be able to use some of the storage on AppleTV or Amazon to be able to download "Frozen" to its internal HD so I don't have to stream it everytime and waste bandwidth.
Thoughts?

To be fair, you can't get all that with one system if you keep the cord attached, either.
But you're right, I think. The closest you can get right now to your "one system" is probably the FireTV. Obviously Vue and music content won't be a problem there. You don't get a direct antenna in, but you can use a Tablo or HDHomerun I think to get basically the same thing. As for your central repository of "purchased" content, you'll probably have to use alternative methods as I mentioned, and then do something like run a Plex server and access your media with the Plex app on the FireTV.

Vue also works just as good one the ps3 as a ps4. In fact if you have a ps4 and want to watch vue on another tv in another room you will have to have a different device than another ps4. As the user id that is connected to the service only allows it to be logged into one ps4 or ps3.

I don't think it's that big of a deal to do it on 2 compared to 1.
