Yes, there are other streaming devices available, but I think the Roku stick is the best. The biggest advantage of Roku over a blu-ray player is that you can search the Internet and add or update almost any streaming app you want to the device. With the blu-ray player, you are stuck with whatever apps they pre-installed on the device, and they rarely offer software updates. Today, there are hundreds of streaming apps. Once you set up the Roku, it should stay connected to your wifi network.
