I will question that. I have a Roku and wouldn't trade it for anything. Roku also has Amazon Instant. I can stream in 1080p AND as an added bonus (which I would pay another $100 for) I don't have to dick around with iTunes.

edit: Roku XD

  • Antenna: ClearStream V2

  • Amplifier: RadioShack Generic Amplifier

  • Antenna feed runs through our preinstalled wiring from ATT U-verse without any changes

  • I build my parents a custom built HTPC/server upstairs in the master bedroom, downstairs has a pretty cheap Refurbished HP Slimline Desktop that also runs as a secondary server for video games if necessary.

  • All computers run Windows Media Center (Win7 Professional) + Airfoil for my parents iPads

  • Tuner is a SiliconDust HDHomeRun Network Tuner. This pumps the signal to the HTPCs. It runs via ethernet which the upstairs runs along the baseboard, and gets to downstairs via TrendNet Powerline AV Adapters at 200mbps.

  • The upstairs "server" has several hard drives which Windows Media Center saves to. The downstairs computer has the Recorded TV folder on one of the drives mapped as a network share, essentially creating the Uverse-esque "whole home DVR"

  • My room just has an additional video out from my PC running over a 25 foot HDMI cable to my TV.

  • Any other TVs that don't need DVR functionality just have a straight antenna feed through the preinstalled wiring

  • For wireless laptops, we use Ubiquiti Unifi access points that can keep up with the HDHomeRun's large network requirements.

  • Master bedroom, main TV, and workout room all have Roku 2 XD's attached to them.

  • Any remaining TVs / the occasional projector we bring out, we will connect to a Nintendo Wii that we have lying around for Netflix.

How is that a set up? Why not just get a Roku box so you can watch youtube on TV?

Wouldn't THIS be better?
