    Default Anyone running Plex on a Roku 1?

    Looking at getting one of the Roku 1's for a fair price and after some googling, It seems you may have to pay for the Plex app on these now? I already have a NowTV box and sideloaded plex onto that no problem. Any of you guys run a Roku1 with plex and does it require a payment now?

    Tia.

    Try rarflix instead, almost as good and free.

    As Jaygo said... What benefits does a Roku 1 bring over a Now TV box.

    I was looking at getting a Roku 3, possibly, next year. Because of the ethernet port.

    I've just installed the Roku and it seems to have a lot more apps than nowtv, probably because it's not tied into the SKY model which nowtv is. Also has an embedded netflix one which is a key thing I wanted. Tells me I've got 30 days for using plex and then a one off fee (think it's about £5 but I may install rarflix, will see how used to it I get.

    I'll have more of a play over the next week or so.
