I am glad you found a work around that worked for you. But I am confused how this showed up Roku.
How does choosing Microsoft specifically show Roku a better model of how to behave a company?
The most frequent complaint in this thread is the behavior of blocking further use of something we already purchased to get confirmation of the user agreement.
In this regard, how is the Microsoft's model the gold standard? To get access to the streaming apps first requires making a Xbox Live account which requires *confirmed* agreement to the Live account terms of service. And if I recall correctly, requires a reconfirmation when it has been updated.
Several Xbox authorized/approved apps and games can require additional confirmed agreement which have their own terms as well. **bleep**, EA may make you agree multiple times to the same exact agreement over and over just for having bought more than one of their games.
Reading Roku and Xbox terms side by side doesn't seem to show that Microsoft makes any attempt to provide terms which are any more customer friendly. In fact, less than a year ago the Federal Trade Commission felt the need to fine $20 million for Xbox violation of child protection laws.
Based on my own personal experience and other information I can find, Microsoft makes a worse role model on how to behave.
I must be missing something. Why should any of us follow your lead and buy a $300+ media player? And what exactly should Roku do different in the future?
