Re: Movieland channnel removed and I'm very upset

Jump to solution

You aren't listening. There's two reasons it's gone. First, the provider may have removed it for whatever reason. Roku may or may not know the reason, but they leave it for the provider to answer that question.

The other is they are offering content they don't have the legal right to offer. If Roku discovers that is happening, the have a legal right, as well as an obligation, to remove it. If they knowingly allow illegal content to be streamed on their devices, they can (and have been) hauled into court. So they have to do so to protect themselves. But again, Roku is under no obligation to say why they removed it.

Your missing the point, I'm not asking "You" for a dissertation, And your answer is irrelevant to me and the point I'm making.

No, you're missing the point. Either the company removed their channel (which Roku can't control), or Roku removed it because of violating their terms of service. In either case, Roku can't "make" the channel return. The company has to comply with the terms of service or they can't restore it. None of that is under Roku's control.

The Movieland channel was available three weeks ago again, I loaded and started watching movies again

for about three weeks. Four days ago I went back to watch the channel it was removed again, The one thing I notice it had no commercials. I like the channel so much I would be willing to pay a monthly fee for it or watch the commercials.  Roku please bring it back!!!

And again, the fact you have movies under copyright with no commercials should be a GIANT red flag that there is something sketchy going on.

Read the previous posts. Roku won't bring it back if they are breaking the law.

'Movieland.tv' and sister app 'Cinema Box' returned 7-18-23, Yay - search in apps under classic tv (but only few movies, maybe rebuilding)
