I use the Roku to watch Netflix through my TV as well as Hulu to watch old Alfred Hitchcock Hour episodes. I also love to listen to Pandora through the Roku.
Pros: Can listen to Pandora, Many TV Episodes, High quality picture, Great value, Reliability, Compact, Easy to use, Video selection, Easy to set up, Can use Hulu Plus, Easy access to Netflix
Cons: No older TV Episodes, Want more video choices
I would recommend this to a friend!

Easy, No Nonsense Solution

#1 - It Works as advertised; #2 It was easy to set-up. However, it is still confusing to me to understand all the potential Roku viewing options. I am aware of some GEMS, but there seems to be a lot of dross also. Why not feature one of the Roku channels each day in an email message to owners and then ask for their rating or opinion of those they tune in to.
Pros: Great value, Built in Wi-Fi, High quality picture, Easy to use, Easy to set up, Compact

Like it but don't love it

Love the fact that I can get movies on demand thru Netflix. However, I have issues with HD movies having to reload over and over again, especially in the beginning of a movie - sometimes 6 or 7 times. I know this isn't because of my internet speed. Also noticed this happening if I would rewind a movie too far. Then again, this could also be a Netflix issue. Love that I can now have Pandora at home thru my surround sound. Love it! All in all a good product. Not sure if paying $10 more for the middle model was worth it, but with the sale going on at the time, that was not an issue.
Pros: Built in Wi-Fi, Easy to set up
Cons: Inconsistent performance

Good value, but I don't get 1080p

When I stream from Amazon or Netflix, I get only 720, not 1080. Am I doing something wrong?
