      News to me, what Roku do?

      I mean the sticks and boxes, not the TV’s themselves, I get those suck.

        You ever wonder why many of Rokus remotes don’t come with a mute button? Weird huh… Maybe just an especially expensive button, huh?

            It’s a problem. Also reports of some reviews that do have mute buttons, but the functionality gets selectively disabled - I.e. on the YouTube app, pressing mute will pause an ad, but not mute. The point is to force you to complete watching ads.

        I don’t understand the question. I’m reacting to this story, what the company is doing, without distinction between the branded TVs and peripheral devices.

          I get ads suck, and I was pissed and confused when I received one the other day on my Roku.

          I just didn’t know if there was some other reason that they were the worst thing that happened to TV that I missed.
