I've already been approached by Amazon to put SB Player on the Fire TV
Stick. Of course with the request they mentioned some problems that need
to be fixed before it can be put on the Fire TV Stick, which is somewhat
nonsensical since SB Player is already accepted for use on the Fire TV
and the Stick is basically the same the thing with less outputs.

On a side note, considering that SB Player is a pretty niche app, for
Amazon to approach me about it they must be really desperate to get apps
onto the Stick.
