ROKU is streaming and we use it for Netflix and other streaming services, some for a fee, most free. You have to have a wireless router on your computer for it to work.
You can also do this with Apple TV. I was thinking of dropping DirecTV with the MLB package in favor of this but I find that I enjoy time shifting the baseball games with the DVR. Does Roku provide any kind of recording capability or do you have to watch the games in real time?
