We are not cord-cutters, but are in a temporary living situation right now, so we decided to use a streaming stick instead of paying to have our DIRECTV reinstalled.
We chose Roku because it seemed to have the best slate of channels and positive reviews. I mostly watch sports and my wife likes shows like "So You Think You Can Dance" and "Say Yes to the Dress." We have been satisfied with the selection of shows other than the lack of an HGTV app and free CBS shows.
The only problem we've encountered if frequent disconnecting of the remote, even after replacing with fresh batteries. When it wouldn't respond (99 out of 100 times when we've been watching one show for a while), removing one battery and putting it back in resolved the issue.
Good futures, but I would like to watch old movies

I bought this a month ago and just now is not streaming. I am a little sad, but I am trying to make it work. Can you suggested anything that I can do for my Roku?
Very impressed with Roku Streaming Stock and the Roku 2 and 3!!! Get many many channels :) I would highly recommend!! Make sure you do get a good antenna too!
I was given this for Father's Day...happy I got it But I find myself fairly often having to reboot the product by unplugging it for 30 seconds and then plugging it back in (according to tech support). This issue is a it frustrating to me. That's why I said I am happy MOST of the time
I like that the Roku stick is compact. But I has to buy an adapter to make the usb longer because the Roku stick was too wide for the connector on the TV
