Roku TV UPDATE!

A few weeks ago I blogged about our Roku player and how we use it instead of Cable or Satalite tv. We have had it working wonderfully for this whole time! In fact, I’m thinking this has got to make cable a little nervous. It really is a great thing! We have had no problems getting exactly what we want to watch, when we want to watch it. We are debating about hooking HuluPlus up and that would cost $7.99 per month, but I’m waiting to see if there is another way to watch current episodes of cable shows. We are still getting caught up from last years episodes that we have missed through Netflix, that may take us awhile. Loving YouTube and other websites on our Tv! Anyone else out there have this or another streaming player? Let me know what you think of yours.
