Perfect and suports Amazon Prime

I can't say more than what everyone else has said about Roku 3. It is phenomenal especially since it supports Amazon Prime Instant Video which even TiVo does not support.
The only thing I have to note is that with this version of Roku you must have a real HDTV with HDCP. If you happen to have a computer monitor you won't have sound. In addition, if you have an analog TV you won't be able to use that, either.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The Roku has been an answer to my need for music and movies. I get tired of the usual junk that cable TV provides. This way I can choose oldies and the latest.

I love my Roku

The Roku is very easy to use, and there are tons of channels available through the Roku. The search features work great, they'll scan all channels for a selection. I'm still trying to figure out if I can replace the "cable" with the Roku through various subscriptions, but haven't quite figured it out yet.

Makes streaming simple and fun!

Upon opening up, I noticed the Roku 3 was smaller than I expected, which isn't a bad thing. All it took was connecting the ethernet cable to the back of it and the power cord, and a quick, simple set up process. The setup manual that comes with it is easy to follow, too.
There are tons of available channels to download, and it seems like there's something for everyone. I had previously used a Blu-Ray player or a Wii U to access streaming content, but starting these systems up was somehow a chore. I leave this unit unplugged when not in use. When I want to watch something, I plug it in, and it's almost instantaneously available for whatever I need. This is what I was looking for when I purchased the Roku, and I'm glad I did.
On top of this, I somehow feel the picture quality of HD video is better coming from this than other sources. I'm not sure why that is, and it could just be my imagination. Regardless, the Roku 3 is an easy recommendation, and I'm very glad I ended up purchasing it for myself.

Don't know how I'd get by without it!

I use my Roku almost exclusively (I'm using it to listen to Pandora as I write this review). When I'm not watching movies, documentaries, or You Tube, I'm listening to Pandora. It's fast, seamless, and easy. I love it and I've recommended it to my entire family.

Crackle seems to have a problem also. freezes a bit halts on some shows. that might not be you, but you can pass it along if you do that.

I bought the Roku3 about a month ago. I am very happy with the device and the service it provides. I for a long time now watched a lot of streaming on TV. I have 2 smart TVs that stream Netflix, Hulu+, and many more channels. There are 2 major differences. The Roku is much faster and has a more reliable connection. And the second is there are a lot more channels available for the Roku. More than the ones listed in the device. There are also private channels. I have more channels available than I could ever hope to watch. I should have gotten a Roku sooner. This is the best value in entertainment there is.
