Roku Surpassed 1000 Channels With More on the Way Soon
Roku announced several new partnerships recently including a deal with Time Warner Cable that will bring an incredible 300 live channels to the Roku platform. This next quarter they are launching a series of new channels from Blockbuster On Demand, FOX NOW, PBS, PBS KIDS, iHeartRadio and Big Fish Unlimited. These will add even more great video, music and casual games to the growing list of over 1000 Roku channels. Once these new Roku channels go live, we will update and add them to our Roku channel list.
Watch YouTube On Roku
People wanting YouTube back on Roku seems to be one of the most asked for requests on Roku's Facebook page. YouTube used to be available until Roku lost their licensing agreement with Google. Now there is a work around from a 3rd party channel developer called Video Buzz. This Roku channel works great to play videos from YouTube and other video sites on the web. Video Buzz also includes a nice search feature to help find exactly what you are looking for. The latest version now supports and plays HD videos as well. Video Buzz is a nice replacement for the old Rate Rix channel which is no longer working and also used to be a great option for watching YouTube videos on Roku. To Install the Video Buzz Channel, the link and instructions are here »
Changes To Our 2012-13 Private Roku TV Channels List
We really tried to keep our Roku Channel list on one page. Unfortunately as we kept adding more Roku channels and codes, the list kept getting larger and harder to manage. Since we spend a lot of our time coding in HTML, we decided the best course of action was to split our Roku Channel list into eight sections with easy to navigate A-Z links, plus popular faith based and News channel categories. Although may take a few more clicks to see the entire list, it gives us more room to grow and keep adding more public and private Roku channels. It should now be even easier to find a good Roku channel with much less scrolling.Roku Now Features Free Search Across Selected Channels

Blu-ray Nearing the End
This was the prediction made by Roku CEO Anthony Wood at a recent TV of Tomorrow Show. He
was asked if people would still be using Blu-ray players in four years.
He responded that Blue-ray had reached it's peak and there is simply no comparison to the user experience
of a dedicated streaming set top box like the Roku. Roku sales have tripped over the last few years and they made $100 million in sales last year.
