Theres plenty of external streaming devices out there, so which one should you choose? On day four, were recommending a Roku Streaming Device, like the Roku Premeire, Roku Express and Roku Streaming Stick +.

Why choose Roku streaming devices

Why? I think Roku has one of the easiest to operate TV operating systems out there. You could put one in your kids room and they could use it easily. If youve got technophobe parents or grandparents in your life who dont usually like technology, youll still have them streaming content in seconds.

If youve been shopping for a streaming device, you know theres lots out there, and some of these devices are bigger than others. While thats fine if you have a place to set them, if you have a wall mounted TV, you want a streaming device thats easy to tuck out of the way. Roku Streaming Stick, Premier or Express are all small enough to hide, and conveniently some versions come with double sided tape to make it even easier.
