Roku is media delivery as it should be. Infinite choice on your own schedule. It has almost everything and for the price that is pretty good. A good buy.
I bought a Roku for my main TV and got tremendous viewing capabilities. I get the best premium package from my provider and I never thought viewing could get better until I tried Roku! When my sons saw what I could do with Romu, they both wanted the same for their TV's. I bough each of them a "Stick" for Christmas, and it was the best gift I could give them. I purchased a stick for my tv in my basement/game room but needed help with the connection, which brings me to the service and support from Roku. After calling, I received the best service and I was completely satisfied and remain a happy and contented customer. This indeed is a product worth purchasing for anyone who enjoys variety of viewing options.
The Roku did not work for us. We had to call our internet provider to change the internet channel and when we did that we lost internet service so we had to go back to our origional channel, therefore Roku would not activate. Since we did not connecct to Roku we cannot give a rating based on these facts. We live in a very remote area and we would have loved to be able to stream using the Roku.
The stick gets a little hot so we don't leave it in after we have used it. Also it is a little slow coming up on the screen. Otherwise, it is nice to be able to use such anobject. It is too bad that we cannot plug it in at the same time as our other plug.
I GOT THIS AS A GIFT IT'S THE GREATEST THING THAT EVER WAS INVENTED. I CUT MY CABLE BILL DOWN TO 43.00 A MONTH. RENTING SOME PROGRAMS SO I'M UP TO ABOUT 50.00 THE END OF CABLE TV AS WE KNOW IT TODAY.
I have two different Roku devices. They are very user friendly. I purchased the most expensive product first. Set it up, used it with no problem. The second time I bought the simple stick. This one doesn't work as well. The remote won't pick it up so I had to download a Roku app on my phone. My advice is invest in the larger stand alone more expensive product.
