How To Add YouTube To Roku

 

My old TV decided not to turn on for 15 minutes every time I pushed the power button. This was a little annoying so I told my wife I needed to find a better TV (asked her while she was busy with the kids so I had better chances). So, I grabbed my coat and headed to my local TV stores. After about three days of searching I bought myself a 46″ Roku TV. The reason I chose this TV is because it was in my price range and looked cool. Now it is hanging above my fireplace in the center of my living room. Since I love watching YouTube videos, I wanted to see if I could watch it on my new Roku TV, so I did some research and found out how to make it work. You all know what that means– time to share with all my readers how to do something new with that smart TV of yours.

How To Add YouTube To Roku
