Are terrible. Obscure junk that nobody really needs or wants. But while Roku's gone for volume over quality
The Roku 3 is a premium player with a superior feature set to rivals. The wireless headphones are a boon and the UK content selection is superb, although we experienced lip-sync issues and network media playback is too unreliable....
If you want a streaming device between now and November, this is the one for you. Unless of course you are an Apple fanboi but then you were going to buy the Apple TV anyway. ®...

Abstract: The thing that enticed me to look at Roku 3 was its ability to stream sound so that you can have no sound from your TV and still hear sound through the ROKU 3 unit to headphones or earbuds, ideal for those who don’t want to disturb others....
Abstract: On a recent visit to a UK preview of an American Consumer Electronics Show, I was introduced to a product designed to stream content from various sources. This product is Roku 3....
