Search for it - runs in Win, Linux, Android (which includes Amazon's Fire TV and Google's Chrome box). Free first run movies. FYI, there are complaints about ver 16 being buggy (16 is current, and <i>every</i> version is officially beta, don't know when they'll release a true "production" version), so see if you can find an earlier version to download.

HBO Now is still a standalone, maybe Bezos will work a deal with them, too. Jeff, you listening?

Besides, give showtime a season or two and we can watch series on Netflix or Amazon Prime, imo.Juicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06868538115353323238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15290406.post-86166082014483460832016-04-16T22:22:18.946-04:002016-04-16T22:22:18.946-04:00I've been looking at a Roku recently -- Comcas...I've been looking at a Roku recently -- Comcast is insane now. Their internet is good but the cable bill -- wow. Definitely looking at options like Roku, glad to hear you like it!<br /><br />JoshAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15290406.post-18327805679541466632016-04-16T18:00:03.263-04:002016-04-16T18:00:03.263-04:00About 10+ years ago you posted about something cal...About 10+ years ago you posted about something called a roku. Didn't have the slightest idea, but in 2014 I looked into one and did my best internet study of all brands for this type of device. I chose Roku 3 for my husband's birthday in 2014. So glad I learned it here first! Today I add HBO Now to our roku channels. Don't know if we're ready to completely cut the cord on satellite, but the roku sure is a good little start, and the ever increasing fees at Direct (left Dish for them) are kill'n us - the bloody nickle and dime'n.
