@OphirGottlieb Is regular YouTube in trouble as well? This is all stupid since I can simply cast from my iPad to Roku anyway.

@YouTubeTV @roku once again your greedy, petulant, short sighted ways will hurt nobody but the customer. Work it out, or add a straw to the millions already atop the camel’s back that are your customers and it will all eventually come crashing down upon you.

@kaludiasays I'm so tired having to switch between Roku, Fire TV and my Playstation depending on what streaming app I'm using because there's different problems on each one! I'm going to look into Chromecast now

@Roku sent an email that it won’t keep @YouTubeTV and told me (the customer) to lobby @Google to change their policies? More like I’ll just trash my Roku device and buy a firestick. Problem solved!

@aaronrift @YouTubeTV I’ve used YouTube Tv on my Roku Tv for a few months now after switching from Fire Stick. I haven’t had any issues with it and I haven’t received this email either.

@MintamenaPie @NicVP88 @Roku It's definitely Roku. Why are no other platforms having this problem with YouTube TV? You idiots blamed AT&T for the HBO Max thing so they know they can get away with it now. Roku's new business model is extorting companies using their customer base (you) as leverage.

@YouTube Dear Roku Customer, We are sending this email to update you on the possibility that Google may take away your access to the YouTube TV channel on Roku. Recent negotiations with Google to carry YouTube TV have broken down because Roku cannot accept Google’s unfair

The irony about the Youtube TV stuff is that, frankly, I've had more trouble using Roku TVs than using any app they drop. So I might just drop Roku. :(

@YouTubeTV I just received a message from @Roku telling me that I may lose access to the YouTubeTV channel soon. This is not acceptable. I only stream on Roku. If the channel is removed, I will be forced to cancel my subscription. Please work this out -Both companies!!!!!

@kaludiasays Normally I find it's just a new update that made things wonky and I have to wait till they fix it but my fire tv also has a problem with not utilizing HDR all the time like Roku and my PS do. There's always something 🙄

@NickatFP Here's the problem- LG OLED clearly has the best picture tech, but LG's app store sucks. Samsung has worse picture tech, but you don't need Roku because they have everything in the app store. If LG fixed their apps they could crush Samsung.

@WeThePeople_20 Because mine comes built into the TV and Amazon is evil. Going to be blunt; all the major corps are for some reason or another. Apple is good with data, afaik, but awful about planned obsolescence. Google is, well, google evil. But not facebook evil. Roku just... Kinda exists

So not only has @YouTubeTV nearly doubled in price since it came out—and added basically all the ridiculous channels people left cable because they were tired of paying for—but now they can’t secure a deal with the largest streaming service @Roku?! Great work @Google 👏🏻👏🏻

Ok, @google if you, @YouTubeTV , and @Roku can’t work things out this household will have no choice but to switch to Hulu+ Live or Fubo. Seriously, we have so many Roku devices. Figure it out.

@Roku you send out an email with a CTA but don’t provide your customers with an easy way to actually action your request. I’m not looking up whom I should email or what method I should use to contact @YouTubeTV about this issue.

So @Roku has had carriage disputes with HBO, Peacock, Spectrum, AT&T TV and now Google over YouTube TV. At some point you must accept the Roku is the problem. I have one Roku left but not for long.

@jason_a_w Sling is fine, I've used it on and off to get cable news. It works on Roku and Chromecast, plus you can use your login credentials to get any major news network on your computer browser too. I just turn it off in slower news months to save money, very easy to reinstate.
