Before my Roku, my partner and I would have to watch Netflix on our PS3. That meant having to get up, turn it on, hope the controller was charged and even then that was all we could watch except YouTube. Now we have those two options and more. And the channels that Roku offers actually have really awesome programming to watch. Plus you can listen to Spotify as well.
I bought this for my husband and he's not tech savvy so it was perfect since it's so easy to use. I do wish the remote had an easier way to type in searches but it's still easy
I got this for a TV in my Billiard Room that I rarely use and do not have connected to my cable provider, but now, I can go up there and catch up on all my favorite shows when my husband is watching football in the TV room. This small and low priced deice works absolutely great!
Roku beats chromecast hands down...and, although I haven't tried Amazon fire stick, if it's anything like Amazon prime (80% of shows are on Netflix) then Roku's got it beat as well.
We ordered out Rokus for my kids age 11 and 12. It was a great option for us because they are so easy to remove. They only get the roku if all chores and homework are finished. Other than that they can only watch fuzz on their tvs!
