yes...the next one down can use a HDMI cable at 720...about 95% of what's on Roku is 720 or much less.

There are a number of news stations that have been added to the Roku official channels under the news category of the channel guide. Much of what's available are the video clips that the news stations have available on their websites. Some do have live streams available as well. BBC News is an example of a Large Network that has a live stream available in very good quality. It's a private channel that you can add from https://owner.roku.com/add/BBCNThings are always being added and CNBC was one that just recently went official on Roku with a FREE live streaming channel.CNN International is also available as are some others...

The Roku needs to be plugged into your TV or your home theater system. So if you want to use a Roku on multiple TVs, you need multiple Rokus.

At this time Roku does not feature a Direct TV channel. However, Direct TV does offer its own app which streams (non-HD) programming to phone, tablet and computers. Sunday NFL Ticket has its own individual app as well.

ROKU works with PLEX and Playon to provide free access to all of the major network channels. Playon also gives access to Free HULU. Download the PLEX and Playon software to your PC. You can then watch your favorite shows later on in the week.

There is a one-time fee for buying the Roku, but then it will show you both free and paid channels. Any paid channels are per month or per use, depending on which ones you pick. Things like Netflix are per month, same as if you were watching on your PC.

Those apps are loaded onto Roku but you have to have an account to access them. Or you can sign up directly from the roku

I checked my Roku ... and CNBC Europe is not one of the optional given channels. However, I did find that CNBC Europe is available via "Nowhere TV".. along with BBC News, CNN, etc. You can find Nowhere TV along with many other Private Channels that can easily be added to your ROKU lineup via www.streamfree.tv As to CNBC Europe, I'm still not certain if it's "live."

Better yet, don't get a Roku if you utilise profiles. RCA streamer MAY be worth looking at. But there's a Sony one too. NeoTV is great for the service, but I don't use without connecting directly.

No, there are lots of selections that come with the Roku LT that don't require a subscription to view.

Only on the Roku 3 is there a You Tube channel available, and if you want to "cast" movies or videos from Android or iPhone/iPod/iPad devices, you can download the app's for those operating systems from their Apps store. We have "cast" You Tube videos, and TV shows from the Roku app downloaded on an iPad.

The free Roku "channel", Pod TV can be added to the Roku and in addition to News programming from the major broadcast and cable news networks, it also has many local news channels on it. It looks like there is at least one local station from every metropolitan area of any size in the entire country. Pod TV and many other Roku channels are not even listed on Roku's website, but these "private" channels can easily be added (Just Google a search for Roku private channels to find out how to add them.) Also, the Roku has an excellent weather channel called Weather Underground. Enter your zip code the first time that you use it, and then this channel will give you your complete current weather conditions along with a 5-day forecast. You get all of this information instantly on the screen, any time that you want it without having to listen to an overly-long, boring local TV weather cast. And, you can also see radar, satellite, and webcam images there. When travelling, you can also search for weather by city name on this channel to get a quick travel forecast. Also, there is also a great optional Roku screen saver called LED Time and Weather that displays time and complete current weather conditions.

It is a good substitute for cable. However, not for the premium channels. Most of the premium show eventually make it to Roku after about a year. Roku does a tremendous job in their own programing developing very good shows. Also Roku has a tremendous group of channels that one can choose from. I have both cable and Roku and I'm considering discontinuing cable and using Roku.

Use the learning mode programming feature of the URC A6, and you can program it for anything. I have had success with controlling Roku players using the original remote to learn the functions.

The Roku 3 uses an HDMI cable, sometimes included. Just plug into one of your TV's HDMI ports. Easy set up!
