If only I could search by actor/actress and have access to the entire library available for streaming through Netflix without having to use my PC to do all this... Perhaps it's not only a Roku limitation as I can't do it on any other Netflix streaming device but a PC is still REQUIRED in order to do all that. This is the problem that lies with these devices... You're handcuffed to a substantial degree using them alone.
Man, it'd be awesome if navigating the channels or Amazon Video on Demand shows/movies was that painless. I'm really considering sending my Roku back because the interface is so crappy. Such a pain to use if you have more than five shows/movies.
Had Roku the day it came out. two years ago..love it! Love the remote control. I wish all remotes were build like Roku remote. Great picture in HD 1080p! Netflix is the way to go for tv in the living room. Great price for watching movies and tv show. 5 stars for Roku! Apple learn from Netflix and Roku.
Netflix is awesome!! Also check out some cool private channels on Roku too...YouTube( code B8VVK), Christian Video Pix christian/gospel music videos (code DKHAU), Pub-D-Hub Classic Films (code ZFJB5), and more!

The software update rendered my Roku player useless. I sent it back and received another player that does not work. Netflix stated that they have been getting a lot of calls on this problem. Roku stated they are trying to fix the problem, but are making no headway. Take this into account before you order one, it my be best to wait until they get it right.

Also to note on the 'music'. It is the 'theme' thruout the wonderful British series 'Jeeves & Wooster', starring Stephen Fry and Hugh, (House) Laurie. From the writing of P.G. Wodehouse. The open credits to each episode has animated band of the 1920-30s era, playing 'Sweet Sally'.
Roku is doing a great job of moving forward in the PC to TV tech era. I will probably buy another unit, as I do not want to chance being 'down' one day of use.
Wanted to let those that asked know that the soundtrack for the video above is called the Sweet Sally Shuffle. Glad folks are liking what they're seeing from the video. We're working hard to get this out as quickly as possible!
@TheLAKERSareGodsTeam Roku. We make one of the products that let's you watch Netflix instantly on your TV. We stream content from a variety of content partners.
@13druid13 Yeah. I have my 46" TV as my HTPC monitor. Of course, Roku is way less expensive, which is a huge selling point and I'm not trying to compare those two environments other than saying that this new interface, while it looks great, does not offer some unique experience you can't get anywhere else. I also think "amazing" is a big overstatment. Go to banamazing dawt kahm
how much does the roku cost

"Amazing"? No. This is a decent interface, but doesn't really do anything that Windows Media Center users can't already do.
