My family and I enjoy the Roku. For some unknown reason, when I watch HBO Go, all of the shows are choppy most of the time. As far as I know the choppyness is only on the HBO Go app. It would be great if that could be fixed.
I bought my first Roku about a month ago - the fancy new one you can talk to. I loved it so much, I bought a stick for my bedroom within a week. I love being able to watch whatever genre I am in the mood for and any time I want. I had heard of Roku for years and hung back from buying one due to fear of the unknown. How silly. I can honestly say this is the easiest technology I have ever used. Truly plug and play! And the price is great.
I purchased one unit - installed with very little knowledge about the unit. The unit does most of the work for you. All you need to do is register the unit with Netflix, HBO-Go, etc. and watch the shows. This lead me to purchase 2 more units and put them on all my TVs.
I just bought this for my 17 year old daughter after her inexpensive tablet totally shut down. I felt bad for her we have no cable so she had nothing she likes to be in her room a lot. She loves this and I already had a subscription to Netflix so this worked.I didn't think this stick worked but it does and now my daughter is happy again.one minor complaint the batteries for the remote doesn't work well but she found a way.Now I want to get one for my main television in the living room for me and guests.
