What are your favoite Roku channels?
 
A Roku streaming player is a small box that you connect to your television so you can watch movies and TV programs, listen to music and view photos.

My favorite channels are Netflix, TWIT, Pandora, YouTube, Yahoo! Screen, PBS, CBS News, Smithsonian and History.

Am I missing some good content?

Slingbox is our favorite roku channel. You don't have to pay for cable in two locations. However, the amazon fire TV is now the best device as it accepts the xbmc "channel" which is something roku can not do.

Aside from the ones the OP named I haven't had much luck trying to watch others. on Roku. Most take forever to load. Does anyone know the reason for that? Does it have to do with their servers?
