Get the XDS instead

I love the player and got it so that my mother would have easy access to Netflix. Setup, playback, and navigation are a breeze. My only real complaint is that the audio outputs are not independent of the video outputs. I wanted to use HDMI for video but run the audio out of the left and right composite audio outputs so that I would have audio going directly into my sound system. This is not possible because if you are using HDMI, the audio will only go through the HDMI, thus requiring you to use the TV's built-in speakers, which is a shame if you have a home sound system. This may not be a problem if your TV has the capability to output all of its audio sources to an external sound system, but not all televisions have this capability and not all of those that do have an easy way to set this up. The XDS has these capabilities, plus more, making this product somewhat pointless.
Pros: Great value, Easy to use, Reliability, Built in Wi-Fi, Video selection, Easy to set up, High quality picture, Compact
Cons: Want more video choices
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I had more trouble getting the router set up than the Roku, but the Roku help line was great at helping me. I'm not that savvy with electronics but I managed to get it all set up finally. I like the quickness of having a movie anytime I want one.
Pros: Easy to use, Compact, Video selection, High quality picture
Cons: Want more video choices, Difficult to set up
