The laptop/tablet/HDMI cable hook up sounds very interesting indeed!!

Comet is still available via their website. I agree, that's an inconvenient means to watch the Buffy Channel. I wrote them at this web address and requested they reinstall their Roku Channel.

Hopefully, enough Roku Users will write to motivate them to reinstall the channel.

I want Comet TV back!!!!!

We ALL want Comet back on Roku. Talk to Sinclair Broadcast Group....they're the reason we can't have nice things.....for many reasons.

Roku does not have that kind of pull. Sinclair is out to make money and get people to watch the TV stations that carry it and PAY Sinclair for that right. If Sinclair let people stream it for free, TV stations would drop it and Sinclair would lose money

A year or so ago, Newsmax was forced to go subscription streaming because the various cable/satellite services threatened to drop it because they don't want to compete with free

Also forgot to add it could also be a bit of streaming rights costs. By minimizing or eliminating streaming, Sinclair doesn't have to pay as much to the rights holders.
