Thanks to Community Member DoctorLecter for posting this deal.

Valid on participating partners' channels on The Roku Channel only. This is a recurring monthly subscription with an initial two-month promotional offer.
You can cancel any time before your subscription renewal date to avoid being billed for the next term. No refunds are given for partial cancellations. Content may be viewed only on The Roku Channel in the US and may not be available on certain non-Roku devices.
So th same as Amazon and Google and everybody out there
To be clear, all Roku has done file a patent last August regarding a methods of ad delivery that would inject ads over paused content on HDMI inputs. Anyone who has followed any tech for any amount of time knows that patents are filled all the time without any plans or timeline for implementation.
But that didn't stop a few tech journalists from writing some sensationally clickbaity articles that resulted in the knee-jerk pearl-clutching seen above.
Would ads like that suck? Probably. Should you preemptively ditch Roku? Probably not, because if you did that based on every patent filing that might be considered "user-hostile", you would quickly run out of devices and platforms to use.
I like that the Roku search shows many different services in the results. Other companies limit it to themselves.
Free Roku channel free videos have the least ads too, usually 3-4x less minutes than the multiple others that offer the same free show
Example if I accidentally pick a freevee offering from prime. First 1:30 commercial break and realize my mistake. Load same video on Roku channel for 15-30 second ads.

Any device that you can install the Roku channel "app" should work. So TV sets with Roku OS, Fire TV streaming devices and others. Worse case, can view through their website directly.

Apparently my google tv has roku channel as well.
Edit: But I'm not seeing an option for subscriptions within the app, so maybe not
