5 Reasons Roku Outsells It's Competitors
Roku, one of the most successful streaming media companies of our time, continues to leaves it's competitors behind.
When it comes to media streamers, one only need do a quick search on Amazon to find page after page of many different makes and models. Have you ever wondered why Roku continues to dominate the crowded media streaming market? Here are 5 reasons Roku will continue to outsell it's competitors for a very long time to come.
Out of all the media streamers out there, Roku has a very simple, intuitive and easy to use graphical user interface that makes it one of the easiest to use. From grandkids to grandparents, using a Roku is straightforward and requires very little technical knowhow. If you can change channels on a TV, you can easily figure out how to use a Roku.
Without question, Roku has one of the largest listing of channels available. With brand new channels released almost every day, there is no other media streamer that even comes close to touching Roku for sheer content. For example, take a look at our huge and ever growing Roku Private Channels List to give you an idea of the wide range of channels available. Roku has channels covering most topics from Religion to Adult and everything in between.
The many things a Roku can do is actually quite amazing. In the videos and article links listed below, you will see five pretty incredible things a Roku is capable of.
Top Five Things to Do With Roku
- Link your favorite Cable TV channels to your Roku if you just happen have know someone with a cable TV account (wink, wink). There are actually quite a few cable channels you can add with a range of providers. These channels will show full cable content on your Roku.

- Use your Roku to stream from BitTorrent through a secure cloud account using Put.io which is as safe as using a VPN. Watch videos, shows, podcasts and more almost instantly.

While there are some other pretty good media streamers out there, our other favorites are the Quad Core Android TV models from Minix and SkyStreamX. Although while quite good, they still don't have the mojo to make them as popular or widely sold as Roku media streamers.
That's not to say you can't do some great things with Android TV streamers. You can actually install some really great apps for watching TV and movies. Or, install XBMC with a ton of incredible Add-ons. Android boxes do require a bit more initial fiddling and technical knowledge to get the most out of them. Once setup though, they are really a lot of fun.
The closest media streamer that was plug-in-play ready out of the box and a direct Roku competitor was the Apple TV. Unfortunately Apple has dropped the ball and chosen not to vigorously pursue the media streaming market lately.
Until we see a major update to the Apple TV hardware and Apple decides to allow private developers to add their own apps and channels the way Roku has, Apple is just another competitor left behind in Roku's shadow.
