RE: A couple of things

On Netflix, the Roku 2 does not show the quality as it loads. There is a red bar that goes across as the film loads. The film starts at low resolution, and the Roku increases the resolution within the first 20 seconds or so to the highest level allowed by your current internet speed. Some of the other Roku channels show "HD" at the end of the red line.

On Netflix, you do see thumbnails as you fast forward or rewind. Some of the other channels do not show this.

On Netflix, you see several rows of movies, but you can press the OK button to get a larger view and a little information about each movie.

I have not used Vudu or Hulu on the Roku, so the interface may very well be different. But as a manufacturer of top-notch audio equipment, surely you will like the availability of Dolby Digital Plus 5.1 on some material...
