The Roku 2 is just as fast as the Roku 3. The best-in-class Roku platform delivers more apps than competitors, constant updates and doesn't favor one content provider over others. Its interface is lightning-quick, fully customizable and dead simple to use

Abstrakt: Media players and set top boxes are basically devices that act as gateways to these subscription-based streaming services, and that enable the provision of an increasingly dizzying array of to-the-set media that via the players is fast outstripping linear...
The Roku 2 is definitely a media streamer, as opposed to a true media player. Sure, the XS model can play some digital media files via its USB port, but it can't really compete with the Boxee Box or the Apple TV when it comes to playback of one's personal...
