   I just want to say that all the articles assume you'll pay for Netflix,   
   which isn't the question here.   
      
   I don't want to pay for anything since I think it's foolish to pay for what   
   you can get for free, if you can get it for free.   
      
   That's why I asked what comes with the Roku sticks. It seems, from the   
   answers, "stuff" comes for free, so that's good.   
      
   Now all I need is to figure out if the Roku can plug into the HDMI "IN" of   
   the monitor (with a Y adapter) or if the Roku can plug into the HDMI "OUT"   
   of the Sony Playstation 3.   
      
   If the Roku can plug into the HDMO "OUT" of the Sony PS3, that would be   
   perfect because the Sony PS3 already has cables that go into the old but   
   rather large (48 inch?) Sony TV (maybe through the DVD player?).   
      
   Come to think of it, I didn't look at the back of the DVD player yet.

   The DVD player also has an HDMI "OUT" that I ask if I can plug the Roku   
   stick into?
