Roku 3 + HD antenna = no more cable bill. Roku 3 is easy and responsive for our daily channels of Netflix and Amazon. Using a Tivo to DVR network programs. Only issue for me is ESPN access.
Overall, Roku 3 delivers an easy to use, fast streaming option.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Digging It

Was given this as a gift, and have found the device (thus far) user friendly, simple to use, great online features, LOVE the headset capability on the remote (except battery drain) and a solid alternative for using my PS3 for navigating into or threw online content (e.g.: Netflix). That is...until my batteries die!!! PS3 has rechargeable wireless remotes...Roku, not so much. Extremely frustrating for a program to be running and have the volume die on the remote and not be able to turn off the program, pause it, etc., without first finding a new set of batteries. Also, appears to be a disconnect between what Roku is capable of offering and what providers are willing to support (cough cough - Comcast) - hopefully some pressure from Roku can assist in getting local providers into the appropriate agreements for use and satisfaction of the end user.

I love my Roku. It is so easy to use, and fun for everyone to be able to watch Netflix, Amazon Prime, ESPN, YouTube, Vevo, or just listen to music on the TV. I do wish that there were more options to be able to stream (such as television channels, only FOX and ESPN are available right now and I would love for more to come soon). Other than that, I absolutely love this product.

My daughter bought this for Christmas but it came early and she said OPEN IT! I am so pleased. We bought a $30 antenna and now with a $7.99 per month Netflix payment and many free programs and movies I will never have cable or satellite bills again. Thank you Roku - you do rock me.

Wish I would have known about the Roku sooner! By FAR, the easiest electronic thing I've ever used. Love the choices and especially watching content I wouldn't normally see. Browsing is so simple and fast. Watch animal show on smithsonian, short independent documentaries on Snag, and a movie from Amazon all with a few clicks. We don't pay for cable and have no subscription services, but it seems like we have endless watching options. Kids love it too. My 3 year old can find his favorite train shows on YouTube and PBS by himself with the remote (and no, he doesn't have unsupervised access to YouTube).

Roku and me

I love it so much I bought a second one. So easy to set up I was watching in no time at all. Lots of channels to choose from too. These are the Pro's.
Now for the con's, It is so hard to find channels and what the channel is, takes forever to find a channel and why keep the premium channels hidden somewhere? Why even bother to hide them at all? Also, when on My Channels they are all clumped together and annoying to find the one you want. You can't move them into headings for contents, going through them 3 abreast and many, many rows long takes forever. HATE it. You have to open every channel up to see if they are channels that have to have a subscription, how much it is, etc.
