If you’re currently on the hunt for a good media player for video streaming, then check out the Roku HD-XR. It’s a small set-top box for getting TV episodes, movies and other video content from streaming providers including Netflix. Previously, this media player would have cost you $129.99 but now it’s being offered with free shipping on Amazon for only $99.99.

Furthermore, Amazon is sweetening the deal with a $10 credit for its Video On Demand service included as well. Of course, Roku also receives its video streaming from businesses such as MLB.com, Blip.tv, Flickr, NASA, and Pandora, with whom you need a subscription for services provided. The Roku HD-XR easily connects to an HDTV set through a HDMI port and is compatible with other ports too. However, you’ll have to pay $3.59 for a five-foot HDMI cable. In addition to this, you’re required to have a broadband Internet connection with a speed of at least 1.2 megabits per second and a good router. All of the Roku boxes work with Wi-Fi or Ethernet although the HD-XR model is the only one with 802.11n compatibility. So, this is a pretty good offer from Amazon and it’s only available today. Act now while you still can.
