ZilviaKid · 07-15-2011, 07:44 AM

cheap streaming rentals, plus just streaming shit from your computer sounds like a good deal

I went with a Roku instead. Has better features IMO

I've been a netflix subscriber for years. I enjoy the streaming, but It sucks that there are almost no mainstream new releases available on demand. The selection is great if you want to watch television shows, or anime, or foreign, or kids stuff. But if you want to watch recent hollywood releases (you know, the hear of the rental business), the selection sucks.

If I am lucky I get at best two dvds a week, but most of the time its only one a week because of my schedule. As soon as I finish Dexter I am dropping the dvd rentals and sticking with streaming and redbox.

if you own a 360 or ps3 you can already rent movies and stream from your computer.

Rezist89 · 07-15-2011, 03:26 PM

redbox

I have a hard time keeping my DVD queue full. I guess this is another reason for me to switch to the streaming only.

Roku Streaming Player | Watch Netflix, Hulu Plus, Amazon Instant Video, and MLB.TV on Roku Player

They don't want to do self streaming because some content producers view that as encouraging piracy. They don't want to get blacklisted by anyone.

If you want to stream files on your home network look at WD's products. They have a great support forum where they take suggestions for any format or service they don't support. They still have a hard time getting all the online content licenses Roku has

Media Players Overview

I have a WD TV. I have been looking at a Roku because there is some good free services they stream that WD doesn't.

Besides, I have a PS3 for that
