Roku HD Streaming Media Player

[Otis McNutt 395]

I recently bought a Roku HD Streaming Media Player, it's the latest in Home Entertainment.

The device is about the size of a Hockey Puck and is very energy efficient (there's no off button so it goes into a power save "sleep mode").

What's cool about Roku is that if has "Channels" you can download right to the built in Hard drive, if you have Hulu or Netflix streaming you can link your accounts to it and watch them on Roku. If you have Amazon Prime you can sync your account to Roku too and access downloaded tv shows (the day after they air) and movies (the day of Dvd release). Don't want to wait for your favorite show to be released on dvd just buy it instantly via Roku.

You can also listen to music using Roku's streaming Music channels Pandora and MOG.

You can even play games on Roku:

Angry Birds

You Don't Know Jack

Jeopardy

Wheel of Fortune

and many more.
