Great Buy, but could be a little better.

This ROKU is great, but it does have some unexpected access limitations. Primarily, for my desires, it will not connect to YouTube.com directly and play their videos. Seems whatever contract "disconnects" may exist between the two companies could be easily worked out. This limitation should be indicated on the advertising and packaging as clearly as they do all the sites it can connect with. I hope this issue is resolved soon.
Pros: Built in Wi-Fi, Easy to use, Compact, High quality picture, Easy to set up, Reliability, Great value
Cons: Want more video choices
I would recommend this to a friend!

Verified Purchase:No
ROKU is required for GBTV.I think it is a big mistake by Glenn Beck But that is his decision.I wonder why the program will stop and seemingly reboot and continue several times during the 2 hour show.So I do not know where the problem is with ROKU or GBTV .In the short time I've had ROKU working I only tried one movie and it seemed acceptable especially the short commercals.
Pros: Compact, High quality picture, Easy setup for computer, Built in Wi-Fi, Delete written info, Great value
Cons: Want more video choices, Movies available
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great box for Netflix, but I bought it for the Fox News live feed and that simply does not work. Cannot find info on why or when it will be fixed. If Fox News feed is important, wait.
Pros: Great value, High quality picture, Easy to set up, Easy to use, Compact, Built in Wi-Fi
Cons: Inconsistent performance, Want more video choices
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great Little Unit for Older TV's
on February 12, 2012

from Chillicothe, OH
We have this unit connected to an older RCA TV and have disconnected all cable... we are now Internet only. Toss in a Sewell box and there just isnt much of anything you cant find available for streaming. Paid for itself in the first month. We will be Roku users for as long as they make them!
Pros: Reliability, Great value, Built in Wi-Fi, Easy to set up, High quality picture, Video selection, Compact, Easy to use
Cons: Want more video choices

I had the WD Live TV streamer and it was not what it was cracked up to be. It loses your IP address often and it just doesnt compare to the ROKU. I love it and Recommend it to everyone.
Pros: High quality picture, Great value, Video selection, Reliability, Easy Navigation, Easy to use, Great Picture Quality, Built in Wi-Fi, Easy to set up, Compact
Cons: Need fast internet service
