Amazon and Google hate Roku because they won't hand over some user data,which is a good thing but be aware that YouTube is gone and Amazon is threatening to pull their apps from the platform as well
Good news. Roku and YouTube finally reached a deal. YouTube and YouTube TV apps will be available in the Roku Channel Store for both new and existing members.

YouTube is not gone. I keep seeing everyone say that. People need to Google it before continuing to spread that incorrect information.
That's odd, all my Roku's have YouTube on them and running fine. Or you meant that they mentioned YT will be gone soon?
Don't listen to that person. They haven't looked it up recently. YouTube and YouTube TV are available to everyone, again. Roku recently reached a deal to keep both. They're not going anywhere.
if you have a roku, better download youtube right now! to anyone who has this shipped to them, you cant download youtube after the 9th of december for roku devices
This is incorrect. That was old news. They've reached a deal to keep YouTube and YouTube TV.
youtube tv app officially in roku store again so those people who spend nauseating amount of time telling people not to get roku because of no youtube tv app cans top now. lol.
I may just keep going to it through the regular youtube app, though, where I don't have it use up more space with another app as I am using roku 3 and out of space.
I got an apple tv for under $100 (new model, not old one), but I hate to stop using roku 3 because it sitll works quite well. lol. Maybe I should sell the apple tv.
No sane person thought that YouTube would be pulled from Roku for long. Simple fact is, Google ads would no longer be seen by Roku users and that's a bad scenario for them as is where they derive their $$$. Too many people own Roku.

Note that Roku sometimes carries over models to another generation.
