    I'm paying for $40.54 to Cox Communication for their slowest internet & very basic cable. Most of that's for the internet because they were so desperate to sign someone up cable TV that think that added less then $5 on to my bill to get me to buy it. This gives me my local channels, WGN, TBS, ION; as well as 2 religious & 2 Spanish channels. They also gave me 6 months of free HBO, which should be expiring at any time now. Because I've been uploading so many Autistic self-advocacy videos to YouTube over the past couple of week, I was planning on upgrading my internet to the middle speed.

    Now for the points of clarification that I need. If I get Roku, will I still need cable for:

    1) Internet?
    2) Local Channels?
    You would need the internet to run the Roku or other streaming device and as far as I know you can not get "live" TV (unless there is a site for it) or local channels

    Yeah. Bought it. Love it. Thanks for the good advice and speedy support at the time. It really helped me make my derision.
