[iPad] Re: report on Apple TV vs Roku with luddite hubby

 

I have the latest Apple TV and it has an Acorn app. Also, all accounts are in my name, but. Y husband can watch anything whether I am home or not. On Netflix, he has his own list. On Acorn, we share. All I had to do was put in the passwords.
The new Apple TV price has been dropped. Unless you do games, you don't. Red a lot,of space.

So after some discussion on this list I decided to look at the Roku. We
have had the AppleTV for quite some time and I wanted to be able to do
AcornTV. It was buy a later version of ATV or get another device. In the
several years we have had ATV, my husband has never been able to watch
anything with it without my being home. Don't get me wrong, he is very
intelligent (way smarter than I am), just not into electronics as well as
being a non linear thinker. After reading some reviews I decided to buy the
latest Roku instead. Within a couple of days he was able to watch both
AcornTV and Netflix when I wasn't home. I asked him about it. He said "the
old one has 3 buttons and they aren't labeled. The new one has a number of
buttons and they are all labeled". So I guess I made the right choice. The
image is good and it does everything we need it to do except project from
the iPad, which I can use the ATV for, which is still sitting hooked up.
