This is not our first Roku access, but is certainly the most easy to install and hook up to our TV. I use quite a few of the apps such as iTunes, HBOgo, Hulu and Netflix. We liked this so much that we bought one for our daughter.
The Roku streaming stick is so much better then Amazon Fire TV Stick or Chromecast. I can listen to my favorite Pandora stations, watch my favorite Netflix movies and Hulu shows extremely easily. My only complain is that the power cord coming down from the side of my TV is a bit unattractive and I can't get YouTube on it. Otherwise, its freaking awesome!
Been about 2 months and mostly watch Netflix. Easy to install the streaming stick. My husband and I can now enjoy watching everything on a large screen. It's hard to watch real tv anymore ! We're hooked !
I am very glad I got this. I hated paying dish or direct tv money that was a lot of money for wasted channels. Now I get what I want . But not paying anything except the purchase of the Roku. I do miss seeing my local Chanel's of the news but I can get an indoor antenna for that. I am saving money now.
We were only able to watch short segments of 2-10 minutes before it wold have to stop and buffer, spent more time waiting than watching. We live in the country and don't have super fast internet (3G), but it is all that is available where we live. Connected the WiFi to the old Wii and have much better results. Might work better if we had a faster connection.
