Cheap Roku Box $25 or so on eBay Includes remote. Use PLEX or Twonky - both free. You can run anything from computer or smart phone to you TV in the highest quality it was uploaded including YouTube Vids. Works great for me + I have Netflix that runs through the Roku along with a hundred or so FREE Roku Channels. Older Roku box will display up to 720P and the newer generation like Roku3 will take 1080P both recorded and streaming. Also, you don't need a HDMI TV or HDMI input for all the Roku boxes other than the newest Roku3
Anyway, any questions you might have, message me as I am an expert in these matters. :-)

Still no official YouTube channel on the Roku, correct? Which video streaming service allows you to tunnel into that content?
I've got PlayOn running on an office computer, so I can pull it in through the PlayOn private channel on the Roku... just wondering what other options there were.
I guess this new product explains why YouTube/Google has persisted in shutting out Roku users.
