Using internet TV

wow628

I am considering shutting off my cable TV and switching to a Roku box to view shows via websites such as Amazon Prime. I would end up with only an internet bill but I wonder if this is worth it. Does anyone know much about Roku boxes and what type of programming is available with them? This could be a great way to cut costs on a monthly TV bill.

If you decide to go this way,ensure that your internet package is effectively unlimited (or,at least,has a high FUP limit) - watching TV this way eats thru bandwidth at an alarming rate esp if its HD!!!!

EDIT: Rereading your post,you are based in US -limits may not apply ??

Amazon's library currently has only 6,000 titles, Netflix's 20,000 and My Apple tv has 70,000 plus no brainer for me
