Netflix Teams with Streaming Media Innovator Roku on Player That Instantly Streams Movies from Netfl

Well, we knew Netflix was up to something. Here it is, and it’s already available for purchase! $99. Though having a separate box isn’t as useful as them building into existing boxes IMO. I’ll stick with my media center plugins to handle this task. But for someone like my mother, who loves Netflix and isn’t computer savvy, this device could be a hit.
