I don't even understand the pitch? you have the disc playing, in your hands, your ownership, no buffering, no subscription required. and they're saying....hey do you want a worse experience?

Wtf I thought roku TV were one of the good ones. I use a Roku thing that you plug in and I haven't seen this yet.

The Roku box was one of the good ones... about ten years ago. Though maybe this is just a TV thing. TIL Roku makes actual screens.

In the past few years especially, I've seen so many unshakable "good ones" go bad. Some, in the worst possible way.

My Sharp TV runs Roku software. Suffice it to say I do not have it web connected and use an android box instead

I use a Roku as well and never have this happen so I dunno
