Great Product

I was pleasantly pleased with the ROKU's offerings after I plugged it in and easily set up my netflicks and hulu a month ago. Since then it has simplified my viewing and opened a lot of possibilities for other viewing as well, I so glad I got a ROKU.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Little slow and don't think about disconnecting

I was initially happy with the Roku stick and would like to give it 5 stars but can't. It is slow and don't disconnect it from power because every time you do you have to reactivate all cable accounts (e.g., HBO, ShowTime, Disney Channel)

Usually Great

When it is working it is great but there are times where we click on Netflix and it will just set there spinning and nothing happens and the modem is less than 10 feet away so I know the signal is strong. We have a more expensive Roku also that we never have a problem with.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

To avoid being charged for adding cable boxes to other rooms in our house we got roku sticks. They work great for twc, Netflix and hulu. The only issue I have is you have to restart the roku about twice a day otherwise the sound track doesn't match the video. Which wouldn't be to much of am issue of this was a box. But being that it's an hdmi stick that's is plugged in behind the tv it can sometimes be a pain. However the benefits are worth having to restart it now and then.

An alternative to keeping a laptop configured

I'm a Linux user, and bought the Roku 3 after the third time trying to get video to play through some combination of DRM-ish browser plug-ins. It just works. The only down-side I've had is that every once in a while the remote will stop working, but either grab the Roku app on a phone or tablet or giggle the batteries in the remote, and it keeps going.
No more trying to keep assorted browser plug-ins configured, or worrying what additional gross software one of those plug-ins is trying to inflict on my laptop.

Roku Streaming Stick - WINNING!!

I recently purchased the Roku Streaming Stick and I have not been disappointed. My main reason for getting is was for my TV outside. I didn't want to run new ugly cable outside. The picture quality is excellent and it is extremely easy to use. I also use it on business travels so I don't have to watch hotel TV. I am a very happy Roku user.
I would recommend this to a friend!
