Love our HD Roku. No longer a cable subscriber. Product easy to use. Only two negatives, once in a while we get a message that says internal error and we have to wait a few minutes then turn off and on. Also, when searching in Netflix it does not show the DVD only movies like the Wii and Playstation 3 does. All around great product.

Cons: Internal error message

Having only owned it for a few days now, I am very glad I invested in my Roku player! I bought a new HDTV not too long ago and decided to purchase a Roku player to compliment it, and the player does just that. There's something to watch for everyone even though it's just me living in my apartment. I'm assuming Netflix, Hulu Plus, and Pandora are the most popular channels. I use Netflix and Pandora the most, myself. Speaking of which, it would be cool if they had buttons just for those channels on the remote, but that's just my personal opinion. The Roku player (as most people have stated) is extremely user-friendly and fun to use! I love the indigo/purple theme seeing as though it's my favorite color and my TV shares this theme color, as well. When I initally started up my player, I ran into some problems but later decided it was due to my finicky wifi router. Once that was resolved, the Roku player set up was a breeze. You will need a computer to sync up Netflix, Pandora, and facebook photo channel (and probably some others I haven't looked into yet). It's very easy to do so don't worry! I've noticed a couple times, I've had to retry loading up something I want to watch, but again, it was probably due to my internet connection or wifi router at that moment. The Roku player is dependable, and you will love it! The only thing I would like to see more of as far as channels go are LGBT-themed ones. Granted, there is a main one and a podcast I found on the Newscaster channel, but I noticed there are several Christian-themed channels. It's just an observation, not really a beef. Bottom line, if you're thinking about getting a player, do it. You will be pleased with your decision and want to show your friends and family all that it can do! Happy Roku-ing.
Pros: Easy to use, Great value, High quality picture, Compact, Built in Wi-Fi, Easy to set up
