What devices are you guys using to stream movies?

[krawhitham]

I use WD Live Plus in 2 rooms and the boy has a Logitech Google TV device

I find the standalone devices better than using the Xbox or PS3 mainly because both devices are such electric hogs. Plus we stream a lot of movies from a PC HD to our TVs and both systems have limited format compatibility.

1. I use Xbox, but I'll sometimes watch on computers. n/t

3. My roommate was given a Wii, so we use that. nt

4. I have a Sony blu-ray with wi-fi, but it is extremely unreliable for streaming

It often tells me the internet is down when it works fine for my computer, and it gives cryptic error messages for netflix all the time. I've been considering getting a Roku or maybe Apple TV.

5. I had a Ruku but returned it after 20 minutes

Mostly it was my fault, I thought the Ruku would also stream files off a PC and it does not.

The Kids Goggle TV is nice, you can sideload just about any android app you want, plus it does Amazon Prime videos which none of our other players will do (WD live plus, PS3, 360, O!play or Wii)

6. We have a Roku downstairs, and the Wii on a small upstairs TV.

Both work fine.

11. The Roku leaves much to be desired, as far as searching goes.

If you don't know the title to a movie, you are screwed. And the never ending repeats of the same suggestions in several different catagories is driving me bonkers.

We stream from our PC to the big/main TV and I like it. The boy friend likes to use the blue ray due to the picture quality but I dodn't like the FF function on the blue ray.

16. agreed - I use my laptop to line my Netflix queue at the website - don't use the Roku search.

18. I purchased the browser. There is a free one and a pay one.

They let you see a lot more than the netflix browser does. You can add stuff your your instant queue and there is the ability to go to netflix from the browser.

7. Apple TV

There's a weird thing that happens about 9:00PM. But, because it is a consistant time, I suspect it is Comcast rather than the box. Otherwise, I like it fine.

12. Does Apple TV stream amazon instant video?

[NV Whino]

20. Haven't tried it yet

But I believe so.

8. Well

Now that you've asked this question and I've thought about it, I have a ridiculous number of ways to stream Netflix.

AppleTV
PS3
XB0x360
Several laptops
Several desktops
iPad2
iPhone 4

Disposable income much? Sheesh!

9. Samsung blu-ray dvd player

Works pretty well, but the remote is a PITA.

I also have a wii, but I don't use it much for streaming.

10. Seagate box, and a movie server

The movie server also serves as a regular desktop and you can watch from there or we d/l onto a flash key and then put that into the Seagate for TV viewing.

I also have my own laptop, though, I prefer watching from a bigger screen.

SO will eventually get the movie server switched over to Linux and fully networked with the rest of the house. It's great having a Sys Admin as a mate.

13. We now use our BluRay DVD player, but we started with a Wii, which we still have.

The BluRay player is much better. The Wii was a pain, plus it had to have the Netflix DVD in it in order to connect. Very clunky, but it worked.

[cbayer]

14. That must have changed, because we don't need the dvd to run netflix on the wii.

While I like the wii remote control better than the one on the bluray, the wii can't get hulu plus, which I use for the daily show and colbert report.

[Stinky The Clown]

15. It has been a loooooong time since we used the Wii, so maybe now it doesn't need the disk?

We're actually on our second BluRay already, so the Wii was years ago.

[cbayer]

17. I only recently got my wii and I am loving it, but not because of the streaming.

The dance programs are really, really fun ways to work out.

And there is nothing quite as funny as a bowling party on the boat.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

19. Roku for streaming Netflix and Hulu Plus

My TV is still analog, so the fancy HD versions of the Roku are unnecessary.

[Merlot]

21. Apple TV

Used to use my laptop, until I decided I actually wanted to use the laptop for work.

Apple TV has the itunes and podcasts, youtube and a few other goodies.

[MaineDem]

22. Just my laptop or Iphone

I may get the adapter to play it on the tv through the phone but so far that's it.

[my2sense]

23. Sony BluRay and Roku

The Sony blu ray is horrible. All types of buffering issues and problems connecting to the internet. Recently purchased a Roku device and LOVE it.

[Lisa D]

24. My new Wii works fine.

I have a long list of shows lined up on my Instant Queue.

[Generic Brad]

25. Wii, iPod, iPad

And sometimes the iMac. I prefer using the wii because it is connected to a 52" tv. Sometimes size matters.

[fizzgig]

26. computer in the bedroom

wii in the living room. don't use it, though, because our wireless is too damn slow.

27. Macbook Pro Laptop

Works great!
