Roku OS home screen is getting video ads

It'll probably work out fine, too. I'd wager that most people don't care if they're bombarded with ads. They see them on TV, hear them on the radio, see them on billboards, are bombarded with them at the doctor's office, and I've heard tell that some people even browse the internet without an adblocker installed, just raw-dogging the whole experience with the sheer enthusiasm of a junkyard dog splashing through a deep puddle tinged with the rainbow colors of petroleum products & industrial solvents.

Roku's own devices are powerful. However, Roku-integrated TV manufactures sometimes skimp on processing power, and I'm wondering if that was considered.

Also, I've migrated from Roku to Apple TV. Which is the best streaming media player in terms of performance, responsiveness, integration with other A/V equipment. And everyone already has a remote for it in their pockets. So, if Roku wants to dig their own grave...continue with the ads.
