The Roku Box has helped me with my cable bill. I'm going from $130 a month to $90 a month (High Speed Internet, Sling TV on Roku, Magic Jack Phone). Saving me about $40 a month and I get more channels and a lot of the same ones I use to pay a monthly fee for. When I buy a modem in the next month I will return the one I rent monthly for $10. I will be saving myself over $600 a year. I think of the 15 years I have been paying $20 a month for a modem and cable boxes and I get sick to my stomach thinking I have wasted $3600. What could I have done with that money if I invested it or put it away for my son who starts college next fall. Thanks to Roku I can sleep better knowing I'm now keeping that money in my pocket and the cable that keeps telling me I'm getting the best deal and is building a new 50 story building wont get that money anymore. This is a great product for those that want to cut the cord with you cable company!! I highly encourage you to give this product a try along with the Sling TV channel on it. I would also tell you to try MagicJack Phone service. I went from paying $33.00 a month for phone to $3 a month You pay $36 a year (1 time equipment purchase of about $45). All you need to do is keep your high speed internet. I hope someday I can get a less expensive provider for that too. Read full review

Uses a limited function remote. If you are using a WiFi dongle to connect to your network and your password contains capital letters, this system remote is useless and therefore the unit is useless, because you will not be able to connect to your network. You will be left with the option of running a long Ethernet cat6 cable to this unit.

This is our 3rd Roku in the house, and we love them. When our cable bill reached $169.99 a month, we said "that's it - no more". Ordered our first Roku, cancelled the cable service, and haven't looked back. Between the Roku and a digital antenna for the local channels, we lack for nothing. We don't miss our expensive cable at all - nor the bill that goes with it!

I bought this item for my parents to cut expensive cable. Works great on their old , non flat screen TV.

I got rid of paid cable tv and use this system with slingtv which monthly cost is so reasonable and I can watch what I desire vs paying for channels I'm not interested in
