- jamesaguilar 13y agoI did switch to the Roku, and, even speaking as somewhat of an Apple fanboy, it is miles better.
- snth 13y agoBut no AirPlay (or anything like it built in), which is a pain. There are a couple of hacky third-party solutions.
- officemonkey 13y agoThe Roku remote on your iDevice will allow you to play the music on your iDevice on your TV. No hackiness required.
- inovica 13y agoI've just bought one based on your comment and I've got more Apple kit than is probably healthy :) Just read about the Roku and it looks impressive.
- jmduke 13y agoI've got a MacBook, iPad, and iPhone, and I still love my Roku more than my old AppleTV. The only issue is that the AppleTV has better options for watching sports, but Plex alone more than makes up for that.
- fsckin 13y agoRoku and Plex are a match in heaven.
- lukifer 13y agoIt's a little crazy that Roku has no YouTube and no AirPlay equivalent. Twonky Beam sort of bridges the gap, but the experience is terrible. I really wanted to replace ATV with Roku3, but I ended up switching back.
- jamesaguilar 13y agoIIRC there is a YouTube plugin for Plex, but honestly I don't watch YouTube on the television so it does not affect my use-case.
