Hi,
Since I start playing with this device, i see a lot of stuff changing from open to Close, harder Agreements etc.....
isn't this supposed to be open Box, or it was @ the beginning only to attract users?
I was shocked by seeing the news from roku and exclusive channel to Dishworld IPTV which sucks and very expensive in there programming.
Limiting customers, developer to pre-aproval? isn't this behavior a monopoly?
When or how long does it take to go for a class action law suite Aginst Roku Company for there last decision?
Anyway, i was Thinking of flipping all my Future plans to Google TV Boxes, at least people can get 1000 times more Contents with Limits and YOUTUBE 🙂
Good Luck for Roku.
No it isn't a monopoly because there are other devices in the market space which provide other options for foreign language content. I don't see any grounds for a class action law suit and would hope to not see one. Roku is making decisions they feel are the best for their business, if that does not line up with what is best for your business that is unfortunate, but the agreements don't provide us (developers/users) any promise against these types of changes.
