Great product

The Roku opens up more choices in viewing options. My cable options are very limited compared with the variety available. I am confident there will be an ecosystem of services built around this product and will enjoy watching it evolve. The navigation is simple especially compared with my blue ray player which has some ability to stream but has a very poor navigation interface. Keep up the good product development!
Pros: Easy and simple navigatio, Easy to use
Cons: Want more video choices

We love having a selection of movies to watch at will. This is so easy to use. Neither of us is a computer geek and we could set it up without any trouble. The instructions were clear and easy. I am enjoying the ease of using it as well. Thank you Roku for making something that baby boomers can use and that I don't have to call my twenty something over to set up!
Pros: Reliability, Easy to use, High quality picture, Easy to set up, Built in Wi-Fi, Great value, Compact, Video selection

No more trips to the movie store!!!

I LOVE Roku! (Even though I'm sure I pronounce it wrong! lol) I was hesitant at first, not knowing what to expect. I have a slow computer and was afraid that the connection would be too slow...but to my surprise - NO PROBLEMS AT ALL and very quick to access all the movies! I am very excited and anxious to see what other channels will be available in the future. There are THOUSANDS of movies to choose from...on several different channels. Once Netflix starts adding more movies to watch instantly -- it will be even better! I was disappointed in Hulu Plus...the main shows I watch on TV like Sons of Anarchy and Dexter are unavailable. I am also addicted to all the music channels! There is still so much more for me to discover and channels to learn about... So when it comes to debating on getting the Roku -- BUY IT! You won't regret it!
Pros: Great value, Easy to use, Compact, Reliability, High quality picture, Video selection, Easy to set up
Cons: Want more video choices

Good, aside from having to dig through the user forum to find out how to set up the USB, which isthe main reason I bought it. There is no help at all from ROKU.
Pros: Great value, Compact, High quality picture, Built in Wi-Fi
Cons: Difficult to set up, USB very hard to set up

Easy as pie, so cut the cable!

There's no need to pay for cable or satellite TV. You can get all you need for free or very low cost by using a Roku player. It took only a few minutes to set up and start playing. We have several TV's and it's only a minute to move it to watch on a TV in a different room as it picks up our wireless signal in every room we have a TV so far.
Pros: High quality picture, Compact, Reliability, Built in Wi-Fi, Great value, Easy to use, Video selection, Easy to set up

Simply Awesome

The Roku XD box is great. Is stupid prof to setup and fast. Super small, fast stable connection all the time, uses very little power. The only down side is video selection. If your into gadgets than your in luck because it has all your mediafly, revision3 and netflix shows (plus) but if your not into gadgets and tech podcast than your selection of video drops a bit. Hopefully they'll fix that by adding more full episodes soon. Either way I love it and use it all the time. Great product!!!
Pros: Built in Wi-Fi, High quality picture, Compact, Easy to set up, Great value, Easy to use, Reliability
