    I see Sky have a new Roku box that's only £10 but they have all competitors removed from the Roku shop, so what are other cheap streaming boxes? Really only want it for Netflix.

    Roku LT is £34.50 on Amazon and various other UK stores (seems to be a nationwide price cut). It has a Netflix app.

    The Sky box for £10 is the same hardware but with Netflix and a few other apps removed. It remains to be seen if Netflix can be sideloaded onto it.

    Have you thought about getting a Chromecast?

    I have the roku lt and the quality is not great , if you get your hands on a roku hd or roku 3 box you would be better off.
    Better again would be a rooted second generation sky tv. ...
    As for content the routed sky I think would be best for content but the roku boxs have a lot of content including spotify which i use a lot.

    requiring the use of a parent device - such as a tablet or pc. serves great as an addon for people who already have nice things
