What other devices can serve the same purpose? I only really need to be able to run Playlet, Netflix, and Plex.

Yeah, fair. That's how I feel about most of my devices. If I don't have root access at a minimum I don't feel comfortable.

Even for the units you can't install a CFW on though you can still get in via ADB and exercise a lot of control. You can't run apps as root but you can disable and purge any of the even remotely undesirable apps and block any of the paths used for forced updates and the like.
