Cut the cord and went with Roku Ultra and Express 4K+. I have already made a suggestion to Roku regarding the remotes (backlighting needed) but I also have a suggestion regarding the UI. On the Roku Home Page it would be awesome to have a MY FAVORITES tab where any channel or regularly schedule program could be placed (a shortcut if you will) to minimize the heartburn of opening specific apps then finding the specific programs that are watched regularly. I can't believe this wouldn't be doable with some simple software tweaks.
Roku, are you listening? 🙂
