The chrome cast actually streams video from a device (laptop tablet or phone) whereas the roku is sort of a smart tv box in itself. I love the chrome cast I have, it's so easy to just pop a YouTube video from your phone straight onto the projected screen. Some of the coding I've been doing I've been able to put it on the big screen while having my laptops on the couch, super convenient.
If all you're doing is streaming Netflix or Amazon video, there is little user-end difference between the roku and a chrome cast/Amazon stick.
