Setting Up the Roku XDS

I just found out that Amazon is offering free videos on-demand for their prime members. "Unlimited, commercial-free, streaming of over 5,000 movies and TV shows", the website promises. The reason why I mention this is because I bought the Roku XDS player from Amazon yesterday and one of the free channels on it is Amazon Video On-demand. So that, along with Netflix and many other video streaming services, makes the Roku box a good buy.

My Roku XDS Digital Video Player has arrived!

I finally decided to buy the Roku XD|S Video Player. I had initially contemplated buying a lower model (Roku XD) but decided to get the XD|S instead because the USB port may open up more possibilities in the near future. I've also learned that MLB has a channel on there which would allow me to watch baseball on my TV. With baseball season just around the corner, it seemed like the right time to buy it.
