Cutting the cable, lets talk options and media setups

I'm really surprised only one person briefly mentioned kodi/xbmc. I've used xbmc for a year now and I couldn't be happier. I can watch anything I want, no matter the show or movie, whether it's live sports or not.....whenever I want. For free.

First go here.....Kodi | Open Source Home Theatre Software

Read up on it and learn a little about it. There is a bit of a learning curve at the beginning but after that it's easy.

Also, I second everyone who said plex. I have the main plex media server on my pc in my office and then the plex app on my htpc in the living room and on my roku in my bedroom. It streams everything on my office pc flawlessly. Read up on Plex here

Lastly, for everyone who uses plex, check out this forum page here. It talks about the unofficial appstore for plex. Everything is legit and works well with plex, they are just homebrew type apps. Check that out here.....

The apps you really want are icefilms, let me watch this, and movie 2k. These will pretty much give you access to anything there is to watch. On your roku. For free.
