It says, it streams over 200 channels? Is that free? or do you pay for the monthly service? and is there an actual channel guide? Looking for something in my man cave/get away from wife room Is it worth it? Or is there another device, where you can stream channels, without having to get another box with uverse/cabl,etc

LINK Some channels are free and some are paid. I use my Roku all the time for streaming Netflix and Amazon. I also use PubDHub and one of the podcast channels which are both free.

ok, so i bought one off of 1daysale it was the $100 model, for $40. I noticed people stream a boat load of channels, but here is the issue, unless they give you a code, you cannot pick those channels up. i noticed espn, espn 2, and rest of cable channels being streamed. while you don't get a boat load of great free movie channels, there were some that had some great old shows. watched some my favorite martian, and some Celebrities bowling. Watched Ed asner throw gutter after gutter, and everyone smoking cigs while on camera. Is there a list, of all streams, and codes. If done properly, there would be no reason for cable,uverse,satellite,etc if people put those channels up.
