Roku either is not paying attention or is allowing the return of the app under different names..

Yep, probably using different company names and email addresses. Hard for Roku to verify if it's the same people.

Looks like it. Sucks. It had a lot of high quality films. You just had to page through all the campy b films and obscure horror/exploitation  stuff to find them. It had no commercials either. So perhaps they also didn't have the rights to stream these titles. Cross fingers it returns. I'd gladly endure the regular Roku ads to have free access to those titles.

Also, the owners of those products tend to aggressively go after those channels as well.  They watch those channels too, which is why they don't last long.

Classico was the best app on Roku.  Just found it a couple of weeks ago and really enjoyed it.

Airport, The Getaway.  Vanishing Point.

Hi Community Users!

In some cases, streaming services may merge, leading to the combination of apps, or providers might decide to remove their apps from our platform. We may also remove an app if it violates our terms and conditions. We take reports of piracy and any unlawful activity very seriously.

For more information, please review our Developer Terms and Agreements or contact the app developer directly.

You can also visit our Roku Channel Store to check the availability of channels. Additionally, please refer to our support article: "Why is an app no longer available on my Roku streaming device?"

We hope you find this information helpful.

Cheers,
The Roku Community Team

Why was Classico app removed....the BEST free TV app I ever had the pleasure to view. It had movies from 60's that I have not seen since then, I'm in my 60's and this was so nice to watch these again. So sad....

@LA58 Please read the comments. Roku never advises why. The provider might have removed it, but it’s highly likely they were streaming content without the proper permissions, which means Roku must remove it to protect themselves.

Yes , The old Disney stuff is probably what got it removed so fast.
