Do you ever stream movies from your computer? We often do, using a program called Mezzmo. It's more convenient to watch movies that way than to switch out DVDs.

We don't stream movies through the computer, because our monitor is smaller than ideal, but we do stream music through it all the time. For movies, we stream through Netflix and run it through our Xbox 360 in the living room, and through our Roku in the bedroom.

I sometimes stream movies though I think it can be hard to find a reliable free site to use. I also worry about getting some kind of virus on my PC. People tell me it's a high risk activity, so that makes me nervous.

Our TV has built in Wi-Fi, so we often connect to our network and stream movies from our computer. We don't need to connect the TV to the PC because it is on the network. It makes it pretty easy.

I have been wanting to set up streaming to my TV in the bedroom. I have seen the Roku boxes in the store and wondered how well they worked. What's your opinion of Roku?
