Great product - changes way you watch tv

It was so easy to set up - it was up and running in 5 minutes (literally). We use it wired (not over wifi) but we still get intermittent low quality streams on some selections (and it sometimes pauses to buffer) - so you definitely need a fast internet connection. But overall our Roku XD works perfectly - we couldn't be happier with it. We use it with Netflix (plus Starz) and HuluPlus. We have actually reduced our cable bill to just basic - and use this instead for movies and TV! Best decision we ever made.
Pros: Reliability, Compact, Easy to use, Easy to set up, Great value
Cons: Need fast internet service, Want more video choices
I would recommend this to a friend!

I just moved into a pricey apartment and didn't want to spend the extra money on cable so I got the Roku to stream Netflix instant movies and shows to my TV through wireless internet. It is really easy to use and a great option for people who don't want or can't afford cable. Definitely worth the money!
Pros: Built in Wi-Fi, Easy to set up, Easy to use, Video selection, Compact, Great value, Reliability, High quality picture

Excellent but has a few technical issues

Watching movies is great particularly Netflix and Hulu. There are a lot of great choices for free content as well. I've had a lot of trouble with the audio on many of the channels particularly Pandora. When the low tones kick in the audio start to crack and pop very loudly. Pandora is essentially unusable due to this and other stations are watchable though on occasion you'll hear the popping sound. Netflix and Hulu don't seem to have this problem.
Pros: Compact, Easy access to content, Built in Wi-Fi, Easy to set up, Great value
Cons: Ok audio wmost channels, Poor audio on Pandora
