There is a thread about cord cutting in Frugal Living. I had questions, mainly about the Roku, which I went and posted there. Rather than getting a straight answer, even though the guy actually is a Roku owner, I get a lecture on how it is much more frugal instead to give up paid TV entirely in favor of like Youtube and torrents and free things, and if that's a problem for me then I need to reevaluate my expectations and priorities.

As though I am an evil and immoral waster of money for liking SyFy Channel, freaking sue me.

Oh, and delivered in a fantastically man-splainy way. I wish I could throw my spreadsheet at him. Criminy.
I went over to the cord cutting thread and checked out the response that you got. I have no words....well, no words that I can write here without getting the boot or censored by the moderator.

I think maybe I should be talking to the Science & Tech people instead lol...I'm really down to comparing specs on Roku devices.

I finally got to a point with that guy like, "It's great that you know things. I also know things."

I kinda just want input from Roku users about if any of them ever reached a point where they could no longer keep putting apps on the thingie because of storage space, and wished they had the SD card expansion, or if that's pretty much a non-issue. I have a feeling it's a non-issue. I'll probably go ahead and act on that hunch. I don't really need to be blowing upwards of $80-90 rather than $40 on a device anyways. (Which dude suggested that I should, but I have no idea why. Maybe his "seminars" were Roku sales talks, who freaking knows.)

You can join IMDB online Free, & watch Free movies online. I have a 27 inch Monitor. HP sells monitors that are 32". I have enjoyed many very good films. If you want to watch the films from your TV, you can run an HDMl cable from your computer to your tv.
