There are a great selection of channels. Free channels have commercials. Some have more than others. Gotta watch out how many subscription channels you subscribe too, will end up costing as much as cable. Wish there was a way to turn off the power on the stick when not in use, other than unplugging it.
I purchased about a month ago. I am generally pleased with the product, although it was a little confusing figuring out how it all worked. Once that was accomplished everything was good to go. The only problem that has occurred is that after instAlling a second device on the TV in the bedroom I had to reboot the first one. I have no idea why but it was stalling and wouldn't load programs. I took a chance and rebooted. That cured the problem.
Be warned you cannot access your favorite cable shows without keeping cable-which was our reason for getting Roku in the first place. Very disappointed. And all the good stuff requires a monthly fee and keeping cable. You will not stay current on your shows without cable. Just get Netflix. Only good thing about it.
