This was a gift, I probably wouldn't have bought for myself. It appears to struggle with streaming and has had to be reset more than twice in the first 30 days.
The Roku stick kept buffering, then played for 5 seconds, then buffered again. When it DID occasionally work, the resolution was no greater than 320 p. Needless to say, I found the Roku stick to be worthless. I sent it back.

I bought the Roku streaming stick about 2 months ago, i also have an Amazon Fire stick, I have to say the Roku is easier to set up and easier to use, I'm very happy with the Roku !!
Simple and quick to install and use. Not as many up to date movies as expected. Very few television show options as expected. Very few current TV show options. Doesn't tell you when episodes are "new" on ex Hulu like other devices. You have to scroll through everything. It does have freezing issues on occasions which can be an annoyance.
Worked great at first...about 3 weeks later starting stopping in the middle of shows then wouldn't load at all. Called help desk...they instructed to update. Worked fine for about a week..same issues started occurring.
