Everything I need, and out of the way.

I have had the original Roku since they came out, and I was on DSL. It had fallen into disuse when I got a blueray player with Netflix in it. Now, when I set up a second TV, I needed something to bring in the streaming options of Netflix, Hulu and HBO Go. I bought a Roku Streaming Stick, as it is the simplest, least obtrusive option. It does everything I need, works beautifully, and is out of the way.
I use it as an alternate to cable/satellite TV in a bedroom. Works great. Set up quickly, although I was a little surprised it has a power supply. But it's a pretty cool little device. Logged on and downloaded my channels in a few minutes and I was ready to go.
I needed something small for a 30" TV in my daughter's play room. I use it for the regular stuff like Netflix, Hulu+, Amazon, HBOGo, etc. and it works flawlessly. Where I thought I would run into issues was PLEX but it runs just as smoothly as my Roku 3s and RokuTV. Another great product!!
I wish the remotes where bigger and more up to dat

I have had my stick for about month, I am still getting use to it, but I love it, It allows me to take control of not only what I want to watch but also how much I want to spend.
I am VERY computer illiterate ----VERY----initially I installed the device and was wondering why it wasn't working----well, I didn't know I had to go to my settings on the TV and click on the HDMI setting. I learned this through the online chat I had with the Roku technician. FABULOUS device!!!!! I recently signed up for NETFLIX on my computer and was watching shows on my PC, but now am watching on my 42" HD TV. Roku is very easy to operate. VERY WELL worth the cost. THANK YOU ROKU!!!!!
I bought the Roku stick a month ago. We loved it so much that I had to purchase another one for our family room! I cannot believe how many free channels there are for movies and TV. There were movies I haven't seen in years! I'm also into animation and Asian programming which they have their share of channels. Thanks Roku for making me become a part time movie junkie!!
I bought one last summer and was so happy with it I purchased a second one for the other TV. We were moving it back and forth from room to room, just made sense to buy another. No more disputes over WHO could use it. Now everyone happy! The 20 second set-up was a breeze!
