Roku makes its way into retail stores

The Roku XD player is finally making its way to brick and mortar retailers,
with the Internet-connected settop box now on sale at Best Buy, RadioShack
Fry’s Electronics and BJ’s Wholesale Club.
Until now, the only way the Roku player has been available is via online retailers or Roku.com. That hasn’t stopped the company from pushing more than 1 million units in the last few years. Roku has managed to build a loyal fanbase, thanks in part to its wide support of streaming content services, including Netflix, Hulu Plus, Amazon Instant Video, MOG, Rdio, Vimeo, NHL GameCenter Live, NBA Game Time and the MLB. The device also has a relatively low price point, starting at $59.99.
