There is no Roku accessibility. Contentwise, Roku's got a lot more , but as a blind person can't use it, it doesn’t' really matter. If your husband or other family members are sighted, then they''ll probably get more out of a Roku. If everyone's blind, then don't even bother with a Roku

Hi, I had no idea the Roku had become the least bit accessible. I once had a Roku and moved to the Apple TV to take advantage of voice Over because I could no longer see to find my way around the apps on the Roku interface on the television. As far as the phone app goes, I had no trouble using
