It's an adjustment to drop cable and only stream, but this device made it easy. It took very little time to learn to navigate. I watch a lot of TV and thought this would be a difficult adjustment, but using the Roku is easy, reliable and very cost effective.
We have three Roku devices in my home! We use them mainly for streaming Netflix and for that they work great. It would be a five star product if I was able to use my Roku on the road in hotels without having to purchase a travel router or spoofing the mac address. If the Roku had an internet app/channel so we can get on hotel wifi this would be perfect.
If you will using this player as the main streamer, you may be frustrated on the speed. It is sluggish and slow. But if its just occasional use it will do for the price.
