How do the other people in your household or, indeed the neighbors, feel about you blasting your TV at the highest volume possible?
LOL I've had Roku since Aug and just turned it on for the first time a week ago. My brain still works.TV?
As in a device to decode electronic signals into live action video broadcast through the air...?
No. I'm not much good with that. I used to work in TV, making the shit you watch. It's kind of like working in a sausage factory...after one day you do not want that product. Ever.
You do know that it is addictive, right? And it was invented by a communist? And the airwaves are controlled by satan? And the radiation from a screen will make you sterile? And, oh, it kills brain cells. That's why commericals are so ****ing stupid.....the average emotional age of a viewer is 13, if they have slot cars.
I'm giving you a 1/2 like... Lol.. I Agree with you on Roku.. Not on Vizio, Samsung.. LolI absolutely love Roku TV. Every TV I have is Roku. I won’t ever buy anything else.
I’ve had horrible luck with Vizio, Samsung, Sharp, etc.

I never had Sharp.. Couple of my kids have Samsung.. They love them..Dude I saved and saved to come up with the money to buy a Sharp Aquos. Ended up being the most expensive, worst tv I have ever had.
Some people have what I call "negative electronic karma" where they seem to get more than than their share of lemons. Me? Every TV I've ever owned, from el cheapo to decent price (I never spring for the high dollar ones, don't think they're worth it) has worked for many years. My first LCD TV was handed down to my daughter and she finally put it to rest after 20+ years of service. Same way with computers, radios, etc., I never get a dud.I absolutely love Roku TV. Every TV I have is Roku. I won’t ever buy anything else.

All smart TVs use an operating system. Samsung uses a proprietary OS called Tizen. Sony and many others use Android, which is made by Google. Apple uses Apple TV. All of them do pretty much the same thing - run apps that access the various streaming services such as Netflix, Amazon Prime, HBO, etc. Roku is a common OS that is offered on add on devices and built into many TVs. There is also a Roku app that connects to the Roku streaming service, just to cause confusion.I'm looking at a new tv. I have Roku here in my new home and it's a small, old tv with 2 remotes and lousy sound quality. My question is, as I've been browsing, I am seeing smart tvs that are "Google" tvs or "Android" tvs. My son said it doesn't matter, but I wonder. Anyone have experience with a smart tv other than Roku? Does it really not complicate matters?
You wanna come buy my tv for me?Some people have what I call "negative electronic karma" where they seem to get more than than their share of lemons. Me?

If you are an apple household, (iPhones, Macs), just get any TV you want, but get an Apple TV to go with it.I'm looking at a new tv.

Roku is a very good user friendly interface... It's really the best...I just turned mine on Friday. I was dreading it as I'm not always good with these things. But it was as simple as could be. And now I'm on a spending spree at Vudu so I don't have to search for movies, add the app for whatever channel it's on, set up another account, etc.

Yeah.. Their device or a Roku TV are the best for streaming... Can't beat them...It really is. I've got the ultra streaming device and not a Roku tv, but it is so simple.

Download Pluto TV... And Roku has a free service to.. Also Freevee.. All free..I really like Vudu, too. I find it easier to navigate things on the computer rather than the tv screen, and you can buy a movie and it goes right to your account to pull up on any tv. And to think I put off doing this because I thought it was going to be kind of difficult, lol.
