Google TV

Does anyone here use Google TV? Does it work well? Do you need WiFi and a TV? Do you stream it from a computer onto a TV?

I'm new to streaming, in case you can't tell.

I have not this is the first I am hearing about it.

Like just about anything, I've heard mixed things about it. Supposedly has new more convenient features other similar streaming TV services lack, while lacking in other places. You don't necessarily need WIFI if you can connect the television directly to your router with an ether net cable. You will need a TV that's compatible with Google TV, which means you'll likely need a more modern Television set, though I'm not completely sure about that.

Personally, I'll happily stick with my TCL Roku. Doesn't have all the bells and whistles, but basically does the same thing with Roku with the other Apps already installed into the TV without needing the extra equipment to make it work.

Rolu is definitely good! And seeing you explain Google TV it just sounds like extra steps lol

Roku is awesome and one of my favorites.

So from everyone here right now Roku is winning the popularity.
