I also got the Hue HDMI Sync box and the gradient lightstrip for bias lighting and it's unbelievable. I thought it would be annoying and it's awesome.
Also, ROKU has made deals with everyone, more than your smart TV. You might find that brand "A" TV doesn't get HBO, or brand "B" TV doesn't get AppleTV, but ROKU? They get everyone, they're the freaking belle of the ball. It's their thing, they invented it, they perfected it, and they do it WAY better than any TV manufacturer.
