The newest addition to this stream-centric world is the Roku. Introduced in 2008 by a small company called Roku, this little device fits just about anywhere and does just about everything.

With thousands of channels available on the Roku Channel Store, there’s something for everyone. It just takes one simple setup process to get started, and no matter if you’re home or away you’ll have access to all your favorite content.
