2. Roku+Netflix are the best bang for the buck I have ever gotten for entertainment.
I have absolutely no need for cable or satellite and can watch all of these streaming videos on my 50" plasma and they look great. I began live by watching the radio and then a little b&w tv for years and I never dreamed that anything like this would be possible, even a few years ago.

I may just go now and scope out Amazon and see what good movies they may have to watch through my Roku box. I have rented some of the streaming videos in high def and they look damned good. better than usual.
