      - Yep, a Roku will do it quite nicely. I've watched the first two seasons of Breaking Bad that way. (And soon the season of Invasion.) -- nm - Don Homer Sep 2, 07:00
- This is why the AppleTV isn't going to "beat" the Roku. 0.99 and you *own* the content rather than rent -- nm - oblique Sep 2, 06:57

  - I wanted to say boa, cape, beret and cane but realized it was a question about rhythmic gymnastics and not about what znu wears to the opera. -- nm - Diva Sep 2, 06:43 15
    - like I'd wear a beret instead of a top hat? -- nm - znufrii Sep 2, 06:44 14

        I think a better answer would be "nothing but a fez" -- nm - Roger More Sep 2, 06:57
        
        nope -- nm - TFox Sep 2, 06:56 2
