I am considering something like this http://www.roku.com/ basically it can stream stuff like hulu and netflix on your t.v.

But is there anything better than this? I know there is a thing that can turn your t.v into a internet browser.

Anyways thanks in advance.

its pretty standard with netflix now. pretty sweet to build a library of vids on your tv from netflix, but alas netflix usually doesnt have all the best movies on instant. Good selection nonetheless though

it's sick bro. my paps has one at his house. if you don't have fast internet though its gonna be a bitch to wait for the movies to load, but other than that it's simple and FUN FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY.

Bump. If any of you guys have the Roku LT, is there anything you don't like about it? Any reason to get a more expensive version? I will potentially be using it on a standard definition tv. Help?

Is there any point of getting one?


Seems like it does everything I can already do on my xbox. But I can also play mad games on my xbox. I guess if it's cheap and you don't play video games or if it's somehow wayyy better

I used one once, didn't seem special

^ I don't have a gaming system anymore, so I'm just wondering about the flaws of the Roku.
