haha thanks to Hulu, Roku and Netflix I cancled my cable, such a rip off! Now I went from $150 a month to $16 a month on Netflix and Hulu together, cable is highway robbery!!
in our home we have 1 computer we hook up to our 1 tv.we have no antenna, cable or sattelite, we basically watch only netflix so if someone needs to use the computer theres no watching anything for anyone else, so i think the roku would have a slight advantage from my specific veiwpoint.
Actually 'it' doesn't remember where you left off, Netflix remembers where you left off. But since I don't have a tv with hdmi, I will be buying one of these rather then the apple tv.
@store275 it's a set-top box, meaning you can control it w/ a remote control (like a nice programmable Logitech universal remote). if you already have a laptop hooked up and are happy there is no reason to switch to set-top.
can you watch any movie you want or just what they have have available ? I was thinking its only whats in the instant movies selection rite & they change the movies all the time rite. or can you watch what ever you want or is it limited ?

@jwh1999 I wish I could drop my cable company but everyone in my house depends on me for cable/phone/internet and like a dummy I keep paying for it.

I can stream Netflix on my PC which is hooked up to my 47" inch LCD tv.
The overall quality is very good to excellent. I'm also able to stream many HD titles.
Is there any benefit to using the Roku box as opposed to my PC??
Is there any feautures the Roku has that my PC doesn't?
