Who else got a Roku?

[se1f_made]

My co-worker is trading me an Apple TV 2nd generation for a brand new Apple TV 3rd gen

Ok. I'm fairly new to this "zero tv" lifestyle (6 months without cable). I have a smart tv that allows me to watch netflix, hbogo, hulu, amazon etc... I pretty much live off those apps, but I really miss not having access to ESPN (Sports Center and NFL/NBA games) and TNT (NBA games). Is there anyway I would be able to get those channels with the ROKU or Apple tv? If yes, which one would u recommend for me?

roku can access almost all sports via the justin tv app, but quality wise, it looks like

me 2 as well

driving me crazy
anybody had this and solved it.

Finally figured it out

had to get the icefilms plugin download

once that was installed:

even got another roku
So now i have the Roku HD
and a ROKU 2 XS

Got plex with all "my movies"and icefilms and unlimited netflix,


getting ready to pull that plug once the contract runs out

would not have even had one if Dish had not scared the wife with the new technology e-mail and made us switch to the HD units last year.
oh well, she pays that bill
i had a 1080p signal upconverter hooked to the old box
I could have held out
but she just could not miss Army wives ( well, Lifetime in general) and damn house hunters

$70 a month i could have right now!
