I started watching news and movies on Roku, but the picture quality in HD is so inferior comparing to Comcast/Dish in 1080i , I slowly stopped watching it. It is an Internet quality, even if set to 1080P output, you are up-scaling YouTube quality videos. It has a bunch of free strange stations (super old movies, religious, righ-wing conspiracy), and even CNN you have to play clip after clip to watch the whole news. Who has the time to keep browsing and pressing PLAY each time to continue watching? Content selection is less then mediocre. So, unless you use it strictly for NetFlicks, the rest is pretty much useless. If you compare with Satellite/Cable, you will be disappointed. Of course, you get what you pay for, which is $0 in monthly bills.
