Review: A better Apple TV doesn't beat competition

[gonzo]

I just bought a ROKU box for my older TVs with no HDMI port.
Ill be getting a few for xmas presents for family.
Netflix has seen the future and it doesnt include DVDs but it does include Roku... or most every online delivery port.

As do all the new TVs, all the gaming systems, and every other entertainment port.
Netflix is poised to jump in and take over. There is one kink. They may have a rub with Showtime entertainment. They have a contract re-negotiation coming up.

But even with a PS3 hooked up to my 50," my own personal movie vending machine: 24HRDVDs.com, I'm still getting me a Roku.
(With HDMI....I can't go for that tired old analog, 525 line or mostly less picture.)
I GOTS to have Hi Def!

They all have HDMI out. But unlike the rest of them they have component as well. Netflix in the bedroom!

Yea, I'm liking the direction access to media is taking....but it's Waaaaayyyyyy behind schedule.
