Also remember that Roku is adding new channels all the time. This device is still fairly new so channels will be added continually. If you don't wish to watch a whole lot of free stuff or pay very little for a channel subscription, then by all means, don't buy one. Personally, this device is just pl...

Who's on second???

I agree it is a big undertaking, but Doesnt Roku already offer Hulu+??? That is on tv.

Yep, have done that as well. I hit it at all angles.

Boy Mikebdoss, you're a downer...

Yes, I sent a PM to one of the Roku employees yesterday and have not heard back yet. I told him that if he wasnt the contact to please forward to the proper dept. Have you contacted Dish about this? That would probably be the best way to get some action on this. Otherwise it'll have to be someone no...

I think you're missing Stratcat96's point above: If they're using regular Hulu content, they're not going to be allowed to push it to set-top boxes because of licensing agreements.

What I really want is to be able to view the archived shows that you can see online on my tv. Since I have the Roku, this would be a perfect way since they offe...

I just chatted online with Dish support. They said they have no current plans to add it to Roku and I told them that it could be a win/win for them and Roku. If we all send a request and innundate them, maybe we can get somewhere.

TomTx, just go to www.dishonline.com and in the lower righthand corner of the page, there should be a link for feedback. That's what I used.

Exactl. since I already subscribe to dish this would be a perfect addition.
