I mean, I've got this kind of paradox - some videos I listen to I feel like I'm almost fluent, by how much I understand. Then I turn on a different video and get crushed. It could be just a different accent, but generally it seems to be the quality of recording. It shouldn't make such a big difference (it probably doesn't, in your native language), but add a little bit of echo and you can cut intelligibility in half.

Yeah, the Kindle Fire has apps, I would use my phone for Netflix, but the issue of using up storage when I do literally anything on my phone is a problem
I figured out it's all cached data that is doing it, so I have to manually go in and delete that quite frequently. I'm probably going to have to use my Kindle for Netflix just so I can read subtitles because if I used my TV (I have an Amazon Fire stick), I'd have to sit literally right in front of the TV, my vision is that bad, so it's easier to hold something up to my face. I can hear perfectly out of the left speaker of my headphones on my Kindle, but I can hear put of the right, except it sounds muffled and not too good. Right now It's not so much me understanding too much, it's more getting me to hear the language being spoken to familarize myself with it.
