Hi I have chrome cast and Roku pluged in to my my and put on my TV, it does not work. If i have only chrome cast then it works fine. So looks like problem with Roku stick.
I bought this a few months ago for my young kids. They have their own tv but we intentionally did not include any cable or directv with it. It's basically used for Wii video games. We then decided to purchase a Roku Streaming Stick so they can also use it for Netflix. At least now they have 2 options and their tv isn't so boring. It is very user/ kid friendly.
I bought this when I was trying to decide between a Roku, Apple TV, and Google Chromecast, and I'm really glad I made the decision I did. It has all the channels you could want, and has a better selection than the Apple TV (which doesn't has Apple competitors, like amazon unlimited video). It's also cheaper than the apple TV and is a much better product than the slightly cheaper google chromecast. Like I said, turned my tv into a smart tv at a low price. Super easy setup, too.
The free content is amazing there is a huge ammout of shows that you can watch for free, I don't have access to cable in my area so Roku is providing me with some entertaiment.
