The Roku player provides you access to many free apps to stream content, and there are also many subscription services available. In my particular situation, I used Roku to download the NFL app. After paying for the NFL Game Pass subscription (which, by the way, is about a third the cost of the NFL Sunday Package cost) I was able to enter my information into the NFL app on Roku and stream NFL football games. It works flawlessly.
Even if you are not a sports fan, Roku gives you access to many movies and TV shows that are free of charge to watch (you do have to endure some advertising, though). It is a fun and inexpensive way to gain a lot of TV content that may not be available to you on satellite or cable TV. I highly recommend it.
I expected the same lower-quality from the Roku, but it seemed a better choice that connecting my laptop to the TV so my wife could watch all the shows on Acorn.
The Roku is surprisingly small and while a wall adapter is provided, it can also be powered from a USB port if your TV has one. You can also use the included adhesive strip (Command removable?) to secure it to the side or bottom of your TV. Setup is pretty easy and while you don't have to register with a credit card, you should if you are going to pay for any services like acorn.
The Roku comes with a nice remote, but now we have 3 to deal with where we only had one before. The comcast remote was the only one we needed, but now we need to have the TV remote around because we need to change the "input" from HDMI2 to HDMI3 to use the Roku. It would be nice if the Roku had an button you could program just for changing the TV input.
We selected to have about 8 channels including Acorn. All of the programs I tested were as clear and stable as normal cable viewing. The picture quality is really very, very good. I showed my wife how to use the Roku and now she has started bingeing for the first time. She's pretty happy which is a good thing.
I am thinking about getting another Roku for myself. Perhaps the Express+ that has composite jacks for older TVs. We have a treadmill in the basement and I am thinking about setting up the Roku with a nice (but old) little 13" TV that we used to have in our kitchen. It would be nice to watch some shows while endlessly walking and getting nowhere.
If you travel very much you should consider that this thing is tiny and will work with any TV that has an HDMI jack. And it will work anywhere in the world if you have WIFI Internet access as long as the connection speed is good.
My very old Roku 2XD was acting up. It would freeze all the time and require a reset almost every 20 minutes or more. It was bad. Really bad and getting worse. Roku seemed to dismiss people when asked on message boards about how to fix the issue probably because they knew it was a crap model. Anyway, with the new selection of inexpensive Roku's now available, I took the leap and spent more money on a new Roku and was very concerned it wouldn't be any better.
Let me confirm. Not only is it 100% better, faster and smaller. It's been 99.999% reliable. One time I was streaming from Plex software and it dropped the signal. Not sure why at all. I closed and reopened and it worked again. Not a big deal at all. I am SO VERY HAPPY with Roku I can't even express it. The new device also allows Netflix to broadcast to me a better interface as well! It looks much better. There are all sorts of tweaks for the better. I can now use my tablet to control the Roku and the kicker, I can now watch concert videos at midnight on a Monday night without disturbing my neighbors as my headphones can be used from the tablet! Genius! Sounds great too. I can't believe I waited this long to upgrade!
I have nothing bad to say. If considering a 1st time purchase what have you got to lose at this price? If thinking of an upgrade from an old ROKU 1 or 2 etc, for better speed, performance or features, I would say YES! You will be so much happier.

me gusto que rapido registraron la compra y luego luego lo enviaron, me parece excelente ese servicio, si le llego a encontrar alguna falla regresare a cambiar esta reseña, pero si no le quito ninguna estrella significa que no tuve ningun problema y el producto cumplio con todo lo prometido porque asi sea el mas minimo detalle,lo pondre aqui
hasta ahora, totalemente recomendado el producto.
me lo envio amazon, tardo 3 dias, y costo alrededor de 800
*actualizacion: tengo 4 dias usandolo, esta muy bien, lo uso para netflix, youtube twitch y google play movies. en youtube aveces cae la calidad a 720 en lugar de mantenerse a 1080, y no es que los videos tengan 720 max, aveces puedo notar que en algun video parte del video se ve en 1080, y otra parte baja, supongo que es dependiendo de la señal wifi, nada que ver con el aparato en si. osea que debes tener muy buen internet en wifi, el mio varia de 8 a 12mbs de descarga, la mayoria del tiempo esta en 12 megas, solo cuando cae es cuando cae la calidad de los videos de youtube, y especifico que en YOUTUBE porque en netflix que lo veo constantemente no me pasa, tambien hay pequeñas caidas y bajas de señal, pero no baja la calidad, me imagino que tiene un buffer de carga de video por adelantado y las bajas son cubiertas por ese margen y por eso no necesita reducir la calidad de video.
lo de youtube lo puedes ver mientras reproduces video, ve a mas opciones (donde das like) al ultimo hay un icono de un insecto (o algo asi) que dice statistics y muestra la velocidad la transfer de datos y calidad optima, reproduccion y calidad del video que se esta reproduciendo, y ahi puedes ver que aveces varia la señal. claro, aparte de notarlo visualmente, es obvio cuando el video se ve a menos de 1080, luego luego se notan los pixeles
pero bueno, eso es por el servicio de internet no por el ROKU asi que sigo recomendandolo 100%, mientras mejor internet sera mejor aprovechado
