    In reply to Roku Puts Amazon VOD Into Beta, YouTube Coming Next?
    Maybe Roku won't totally finacially implode now. But Blockbuster still will.

    Anyone know if this is going to be available in the Samsung Blu-Ray boxes, or if it's just in the stand-alone Roku?

    In reply to Amazon Game Downloads Store Offers 'Try Before You Buy' Titles for $10
    Amazon is really making the move to pure-digital retailing quite nicely. I think there are some challenges ahead, since they have yet to achieve that destination-site status, and without hardware to drive sales (like Apple has) they're going to have an uphill battle. But at least they're making a go of it, and seem to be doing well with the music and books, even if they're not quite there yet with videos and (now) games.

    In reply to Amazon HD Streaming Spotted on TiVo
    I really want to love my TiVo HD, but after almost a year I'm still having a really hard time getting into it. The UI and the various quirks here and there end up frustrating me at least once a day.


    It's to the point that I don't explore beyond the "Playing Now" and live TV guides, but if Amazon and TiVo can get a good HD streaming service on the box, it'll go a long way in alleviating my frustrations.

    @karmaghost: Really? I loved it instantly. Downloadable music videos, amazn unbox, etc.


    I was even surprised to find that the youtube function is kinda entertaining even without a really easy was to enter searches.

    In reply to Review: Sony's Complete Bravia Link Home Theater System
    Was the PS3 not working over the wireless link because of some sort of HDCP handshaking issue? Did you try component?


    Anyways, all of this crap seems useless without a decent universal remote. And I'm with you on the PS3 and video channels. It can do so much, they just won't let it.

    @Robobagins: HDCP was my first inclination, honestly, and I haven't ruled it out. I don't have component cables to check it, however, and Sony has assured me that it should work.

    Great review.


    Question, I see three remotes, if those were the only ones, did those three work out of the box with all the components? Or if there were more remotes, were there some that didn't work with other components?

    @DownfieldComa: I'm pretty sure there's a remote for each component but...errr...I may have lost one for the shot.


    The remotes do work with the TV out of the box, but not necessarily the other components without programming. And of course they work with the TV because, at least with the USB components, I believe the TV is actually controlling the peripheral.
