Sounds like a plan, brother! I know that high speed internet is much more worthwhile than satellite or cable TV. I'm tempted myself, except mama watches Food Network almost 24/7. But since I got my ROKU, I'm almost exclusively using it with Netflix and Pandora and rarely switch to "regular" tv anymore. However, come baseball season I will be watching Fox Cinci for the Reds- who are blacked out on MLB.com, so that would be my only way of watching them. So, for now, I'll keep the Directv- but in your case what you plan to do makes sense!

Just a FYI, food network has a lot of videos on their site for viewing. Also you can youtube a lot of the shows.

I installed a couple private channels for my Roku at http://www.thenowhereman.com/roku/ too.

One has HGTV shows and clips and there are some Food Network ones, too. I think they were with the PodTV Channel.
