I bought the Roku stick as a cheaper option to meet my streaming needs. I liked it so much, I bought a second one for the basement television. It's great to take when traveling too. Setup is a breeze and I have experienced no problems with connectivity or reliability. The stick is a great option for those who don't require the additional features of a full-size Roku.
I purchased my first Roku about a year ago then purchased another 6 months ago then another 2 months ago, everybody wanted one! Roku saves all of your personal favorites and is very easy to navigate features and or scroll/scan new programs.
I bought to cut down on our cable bill. It is great. Lots of movies to choose from. Lots of TV programs new and classics. Some movies you do have to pay for and you do need to pay a monthly fee for things like Netflix, Hulu and Amazon prime. There are also lot of streaming channels that are free. Just depends what you are looking for to watch.
I'm not into the Latest gadgets but this is definitely the best purchase I have made in a while!!! One catch....ITS Addicting.....access to so much entertainment.....my laundry is piling up!!
Awesome. When I got this I liked it and it is so much better then a blu ray player. But I wanted the Mhl thing because my tv has it. But either way great.
