I am an Apple TV owner.
However, I have yet to upgrade my 720p model for the 1080p version.
That goes to show you how much I really stream content on my display.
I know I don't want to pay for services like Netflix. Had the service for a few
months and then found that there wasn't much for me to watch.
You see, I mostly buy Blu-rays for recent films.
...which brings me back to ROKU.
I plan on eventually upgrading my Apple TV to the 1080p version.
However, I am wondering what the ROKU 3 brings to the table that perhaps
is better (or at least compliments) the Apple TV that I already own. I know it
has 1080p capability.
...and note, my new plasma display is a Smart TV so it has a ton of streaming
capabilities.
I guess I am wondering if it has enough interesting FREE streaming content
and a pleasing enough interface that it is worth purchasing.
