Hi, @bruzamte 

Thanks for posting, and welcome to the Roku Community.

We appreciate you for your insights on the availability of the VBTV channel on Roku. Kindly be advised that the VBTV channel is not available on the Roku Channel Store, but we hope to have the channel in the future.

For more information, you can reach out to the channel provider where you can let them know that you'd like to see and stream the VBTV channel on Roku. Channel providers design and build their own channels on the Roku platform.

We hope you find this information helpful, and let us know if you have further concerns or inquiries.

@bruzamte-

It may not be apparent to many users that the various channel owners create, submit to Roku, and maintain the specific Roku-compatible versions of their apps that run on the Roku operating system.  They also specify the geographical regions in which their channel apps may be offered.  Roku just provides the platform on which they run. 

If you want to have a specific channel that's not available for your Roku and region, you need to convince the channel owner to create a Roku-compatible version of their app, specify where it is to be available, agree to Roku's conditions, and submit it to Roku.

I was going to send the following to Roku, but there's no way to do that other than this board, so I'll post it here, then try tweaking VolleyballWorld per this discussion.

Dear Roku -

I subscribe to a service called Volleyballworld TV for a fee. It's a menu-based streaming service like all your others, but I've never found it as a menu option on either of my Roku boxes, and a search for "volleyball" both on the boxes and here on your web site does not find it. Consequently, I access it through my streaming PC, which is inconvenient. Do you know why you don't list this in your menus?
