We started using Roku six years ago when we cut the cord. That Roku device was killed in a lightning strike so we bought a new one a couple years ago. They've improved much in features and ease of use. We only pay for Netflix, locast.org for news, the Amazon prime membership once a year, and PBS Passport membership. It's easy to subscribe to Roku pay channels like Acorn and Smithsonian, for example, and just as easy to unsubscribe when you are done with them.

Like OBB, I also believe in paying for what we view, and not view so-called "free" content.
