I needed to replace Apple TV which was limiting my ability to access Acorn and other streaming modes. I had a TV which was relatively new and could use the ubs port that Roku Stick uses. It was easy to install and use. We love it!!
Since I already owned two Roku 3s, I had no reservations about adding the Roku Stick. I bought it because one of the Roku 3s stopped working. Don't know why, it just did. Only issue with the Stick is the location on my SONY Bravia 55" LED TV. It's somewhat hidden and the Roku remote has to be aimed in the right direction for the signal to be picked up by the Stick.
Nice features and simple to hookup and use I usually have a hard time setting equipment however I was ready in a couple of minutes to use my new product.
I don't subscribe to cable, I don't like paying a lot of money for something that I use very little. With Roku, I can select things that I enjoy, most of which are free. I can watch live or archived shows and I can even move my Roku stick from one tv to another. The only thing that I don't like about the stick is that you can't turn it off. I don't like the idea of my wifi being constantly on, so I unplug the stick when not in use. Other than that a few minor irritations, like having to select something multiple times, it is great.
I bought this and am happy do far with the selection of channels. There are many that yo have to pay for but so far I am am satisfied with the free channels. I have already referred this to my dad and he has purchased one.
