Starting a new thread about the Roku, so as to leave the other one pertinent to the AeroCinema website.

Anyway, if you don't know what Roku is, it's like Apple TV except not as "closed." What that means is that anyone can develop content (via "channels") in addition to the officially supported channels (there are over 130 to date - the year started with only a handful... I'm not kidding.) Read more about the Roku here: http://www.roku.com/ (I don't stand to gain anything financially from this.)

To respond to Eddie's question, in the previous thread, about watching "Live TV:" You can watch live TV on the internet via several sites that offer it (some are free and some are $ubscription-based.) However, there are a few live channels on the Roku - the NASA channel, HSN (Home Shopping Network,) and - I just learned - the UStream channel contains live feeds from CBS News, some sports events, live concerts. Learn more about UStream here:
