I think the Roku Ultra is a great product, can't speak to the other levels, but it works really well in comparison to google's parade of stuff, amazon fire stick, apple tv, and smart tv apps on Samsung, LG, and Sony TVs. Also the remote finder is quite handy. For me, the best aspect of it was their openness. All of the other competing products had their own streaming services, which meant problems with the other providers- why they spun this off from Netflix in the first place. This means the search will go across the different services to answer the pressing question of the day- which service is this content on and at what price? I was considering starting a company to offer this service until Roku met my need there. Now though, the battle with Google over YouTube has me suspicious of this status. The temptation to chase recurring revenue streams is quite high.
