Roku Laying Off 10% of Employees, Will Take up to $65M Content Charge - Variety

Iâm noticing less Roku TVâs on the market. The two bigger name primarily Roku tv brands in the past have gone to mainly Google now. I think Walmartâs ONN brand is primarily Roku but TCL and Hisense seem to be putting out more Google TVâs then Roku. I donât think I saw a single Hisense Roku in the new line ups. TCL has a few but primarily Roku seems to be getting pushed to the lower end of the market. Also noticing no new models of streaming players in a while.
Itâd be a shame if Roku goes out as I believe the interface is a bit better than the FireTV or Google TV interface.
Though Iâm thinking Walmart would probably end up buying them to use as their devices OS.

Hulu Bought By Disney; Price Expected To Be At Least $8.6 Billion â Deadline

So hereâs the thing does Disney buy Hulu, then fold it into Disney +? It makes no sense to own 2 Streaming services, especially one thatâs similar to what you offer on another service. It would make more sense to fold one into the other (Like CR did with Funimation, Although they should have kept Funimation as their free with ads offering. The reason they donât just axe Funimation is because of the digital purchases, They donât want to alienate those people, yet)

James Gunn must have threatened to stop working for them or something. Doubt it was really the backlash or we would have gotten Batgirl.

If they had a deal on the ad-free version, I might have considered it.

Only one of a sort of deal Iâve seen on the ad free for them is if you have one of the Verizon Wireless unlimited plans that put it in at $8.99 a month for Hulu and D+. They sort of figure it in the cell plan so it appears youâre getting it free but not really.
