Online movie rental company Netflix has teamed up with Roku to create a new
device that enables Netflix subscribers to instantly stream a growing library of movies and TV episodes from Netflix directly to the TV. The player is roughly the size of a paperback book, supports both wired and wireless connections to the internet, and has a range of connectors, from HDMI to RCA. The player itself costs $99.00, and, as long as a user has a Netflix subscription of $8.99/month or more, he/she is allowed unlimited streaming from a catalogue of more than 10,000 items (though newer releases are lacking at the moment).
"
We're excited to bring the first Netflix ready device to the market," said Anthony Wood, CEO and founder of Roku. "
Now, streaming video isn't limited to people sitting in front of the PC; it's ready for the TV in the living room."
