We got rid of cable TV for various reasons and are very happy with the cost of the ROKU and Netflix. For $99 it is a good value. If I had had an XBox or now on Playstation, I could have had Netflix for free, but since I'm not interested in TV games, it was much cheaper just to go with ROKU. They are updating the box with new channels, which makes things even better! Have had so much fun seeing all those old series from the 60s and movies that I would never bother buying on DVD, so the value is quite good.
The only issue is a very inconsistent quality... it quite often starts with "4 dots", but then within a few minutes decreases to "2 dots" in quality and stays that way the rest of the night. Looks very pixilated. Not sure if it has to do with the WiFi connection or not.
The HDMI connection failed once, but then started again the next day... not sure why. I emailed ROKU and got a response with corrections to try very quickly, but since it started working again, didn't need to try them out.
Overall, good value, but needs some tweaking!
