If it had Amazon Prime, it would be a perfect match for me. Until then, Roku.

If only Roku had Youtube, and if only either could do networked files reasonably at the moment...

I currently have a chromecast, a roku, and a raspi plugged into my tv. An absurd setup, I really need to invest some time into figuring out something sane.

I recently bought a Roku 3 and paired it with a FreeNAS server running the Plex media server. Add the Plex channel on the Roku and you get the network file support + Youtube. Getting Plex + Roku setup been the best thing I've done on my home network in years!
