Same as everyone else who's mentioned the Queue ~ 10 is too short. I had to strip out all of my "occasional" series. When its set to 50, that will be OK.
Once that is fixed, being able to add series to a queue on the Roku itself is a big plus compared to the previous app. However, it could also be easier to add a series to the queue. Highest priority to add what is already there is being able to also add a series to the queue from the episode that shows up in the "recently watched" list, since that's kind of a normal way to go about it ~ searching for a show, watching some of the first episode, deciding to add it to the queue.

And you do that using a Roku ... how, again?
At least pretend that you are responding to the topic rather than just blindly spamming links to rip-off sites that chase ad revenue on their site while the free upload sites they leech off of do all the hard work.

I mostly just report them to the mods to clean their advertising out of the forum, but I did want to underline that Crunchyroll player on Roku is an advantage that the lazy freeloader sites do not offer

Looks at my HDTV...no XBOX 360 or PS3 in sight. Given that the sales of both combined just topped 100 million this year in a world with 6.8 billion people, I am far from alone. Sorry, not everyone is a gamer.
No doubt if it was as easy to develop an app for either machine and get it approved as it is for the Roku, Crunchyroll would have already done so.

I really enjoy the queue being added to it now, makes it easier to find series currently in the middle of watching.
Though my only gripe is that some series like Gintama, KHR, and Bleach have the subtitles cut on the bottom of the screen when viewed on Roku |

Sure, if you don't want a set-top box, don't get one, but its a bit silly to call that a "boycott". And if you got an actual boycott underway, the primary impact would be to hamper Crunchyroll's ability to develop the services you want.
And it might be an obscure little box in your neck of the woods, but CNet concludes that its best-in-class: Put another way, even with the increased competition--most notably in the Apple realm--and despite some shortcomings, the simplicity, affordable price, and superior programming selection of the Roku 2 XS make it the go-to choice for buyers looking for a sub-$100 solution for accessing the increasingly attractive panoply of online streaming-media services.
If they can develop good dedicated console solutions for the PS3 and XBox360, of course they are going to roll them out, but they are going to be one-off apps, since the next generation of gaming consoles are going to be better suited for OTT video streaming than the PS3 and XBox360 are.
