Who is Roku?
Roku is the company that pioneered streaming for the TV.
We make Roku® streaming players that connect to your TV as well as Roku TVs™ that have the streaming experience built in. Just connect them to the Internet, set up a Roku account, and start streaming. Roku is a more convenient and cost effective way to watch TV.
What is streaming?
Have you ever watched a YouTube video on your smartphone or a Netflix movie on your laptop? That’s streaming. It’s the way video and audio content is delivered over the Internet, and has become a popular way to watch TV.
Why? Because streaming lets you watch what you want, the moment you want to. You don’t have to wait for a download to finish, your DVR to record, or the show to come on the air.
Roku products bring the fun and convenience of streaming to your big-screen TV. The choice of what to watch and what to pay for is up to you. We like to call it TV on your terms.
