Roku is a media streamer that allows you to push video and
music content from the internet to your TV. Its main competitor is Apple TV -
but Roku costs half the price. News Corp and BSkyB have just invested US$45m
to expand Roku's current organisation and push forward with the 'Roku Stick',
which packs all the features of the Roku's small box but shoves straight into
the back of your TV.

The reason that News Corp see this as such a strategic
purchase is that it could open up paid-for streaming of content over the
internet - without the need for a cable contract. Browsing channels could
become just like browsing apps, except these channels will have most of your
favourite shows available at any time - and you would only pay for what you
watched.
