Re: device
I don't have any direct experience with Roku or Apple TV, but I've got a couple of Sony Blu-Ray players that have built in Netflix/Amazon/Pandora/Spotify/Hulu/Youtube/other stuff and I like them pretty well, and I also have 2 different network devices that I use to play videos found on my home network. One of them is a Sony, which also includes the same internet content that their Blu-Ray players provide, and the other is a Western Digital TV-Live device which also has some of the same internet content.I like the interface on the Sony devices better than the WD, and the Sony media-only box (non-blu-ray) was only about $60 at Best Buy (and I think has gone down). The Sony is also wireless, which makes it easier to set up. None of these include trial subscriptions to anything, which I think the Roku and Apple devices might.Here's the Sony box:
