Amazon Instant Videos and Roku

Roku Netflix Player & Cables Packaging (Photo credit: yonnage)

We own a small number of instant videos on Amazon and we recently purchased an inexpensive Roku TV box so I could finally play them in our bedroom instead of just in the living room.  The Roku is an inexpensive little device that does a lot and I fully endorse it.  It handles Amazon videos, Hulu plus, Netflix, a large number of free channels and it plays some games.  It even hooks up to our crappy old little TV that doesn't have HDMI but the Roku does have an HDMI hookup when we finally convert.  The Roku is inexpensive, simple and makes me happy.  Few things can do those three things at once.
