The large image to the right on homescreen

When I start up Roku, I am presented with channels and a large image to the right - I have tried to contact Kyle in Marketing about this repeatedly - is that space available to advertise a new channel or new show? Sometimes I see a grey Roku placeholder image in the cycle so I am assuming it is space for rent.

If so, who do I talk to about this?

Thanks

Some discussion of this happened here viewtopic.php?f=34&t=70715

To me seems "Roku empty stage" gets shown when there is no ad immediately available - IMHO mostly due to ad server failing to respond within timeout (network delay, txn delay, server down etc). You can try playing around with home menu (move left-right repeatedly) to see it happen.

Thanks for sending the link - I had been emailing marketing directly instead of advertising.
