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
