Segi.tv partner with Roku, no need of youtube
google showing their typical communist ways but this is just another fantastic dip buying opportunity
Roku has pulled YouTube TV from its channel store. The distribution agreement between Roku and Google for YouTube TV has expired as of today — and the two sides haven’t been able to reach a new deal. However, Roku says it is “taking the extra step to continue to offer existing subscribers access to YouTube TV on the Roku platform unless Google takes actions that require the full removal of the channel.” New subscriptions from the YouTube TV app have also been switched off “until an agreement is reached.”
In an email to customers, Roku warned “it is also important that you do not delete the YouTube TV app as it will not be available for download to Roku devices.” The regular YouTube app is unaffected by this situation and remains freely available on Roku devices.
Roku has accused Google of seeking unfair terms that would adversely affect streaming competitors and benefit the YouTube suite of apps. Google has also asked for deeper access to Roku customer data than other services, Roku claims, and is pushing Roku to adopt new hardware requirements; presumably the company is aiming to get AV1 supported in the future.
“We have only asked Google for four simple commitments,” Roku said in a new statement today. “First, not to manipulate consumer search results. Second, not to require access to data not available to anyone else. Third, not to leverage their YouTube monopoly to force Roku to accept hardware requirements that would increase consumer costs. Fourth, not to act in a discriminatory and anticompetitive manner against Roku.”
Earlier this week, Google accused Roku of abusing its strong position in the streaming hardware market. “Roku often engages in these types of tactics in their negotiations. We’re disappointed that they chose to make baseless claims while we continue our ongoing negotiations,” a Google spokesperson told The Verge on Monday. “All of our work with them has been focused on ensuring a high quality and consistent experience for our viewers. We have made no requests to access user data or interfere with search results. We hope we can resolve this for the sake of our mutual users.”
Google today followed that up with a blog post, stating that “our initial conversations started with Roku simply to renew the current terms of their ongoing deal with YouTube TV, which has been in place for several years. Our offer to Roku was simple and still stands: renew the YouTube TV deal under the existing reasonable terms.” Google claims that Roku used the opportunity to also “renegotiate a separate deal encompassing the YouTube main app, which does not expire until December.”
One bullet point really does sound like Google wants Roku to get on board with the AV1 codec:
Our agreements with partners have technical requirements to ensure a high quality experience on YouTube. Roku requested exceptions that would break the YouTube experience and limit our ability to update YouTube in order to fix issues or add new features. For example, by not supporting open-source video codecs, you wouldn’t be able to watch YouTube in 4K HDR or 8K even if you bought a Roku device that supports that resolution.
The takeaway is that we’re witnessing a more online, digital version of the carriage disputes that are so common between cable providers and content providers. Both companies are choosing their words extremely carefully.
Roku has insisted it’s not demanding more money from Google, and its email to customers — sent out at 8AM ET this morning — says “we cannot accept Google’s unfair and anticompetitive requirements that would allow for the manipulation of your search results, impact the usage of your data, and ultimately cost you more.” Google’s stance is that it “can’t give Roku special treatment at the expense of users,” and it’s reiterating that there have been no requests to change search or for special access to user data. “This claim is baseless and false,” Google said in its post.
Update April 30th 12PM ET: The article has been updated with new information from a blog post published by Google / YouTube.

See-I told you this would bounce back-but one more pull-back Isn't out of the question-It would be the time to buy more shares.Hold on to your shares because this stock has potential to ride-up extremely high.
Evercore ISI Group analyst Mark Mahaney initiates coverage on Roku (NASDAQ:ROKU) with a Outperform rating and announces Price Target of $400.
I DID NOT COMPARE THEM WITH NETFLIX !!! I SAID THEY ARE AT LEAST [5] FIVE YEARS BEHIND -NETFLIX- THE PRICE OF THIS STOCK SHOT UP CLOSE TO WHERE NETFLIX IS IN A PRETTY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME;SO I THINK IT'S DOING PRETTY GOOD. I REALLY WISH PEOPLE WOULD ACTUALLY TAKE THE TIME TO READ SOMETHING AND ACTUALLY COMPREHEND WHAT THEIR READING-BESIDES I WASN'T TALKING TO YOU-I WAS REPLYING TO SOMEONE ELSE [HOW RUDE] .
I wouldn't compare them to Netflix. so much more room to grow here looks as if everyone is turning their content away from Netflix to do their own platform so netflix is going to have to get some good originals here to keep people busy
I wouldn't worry -there just getting started [ GLOBALLY ] . Also if you look they are 5 years behind NETFLIX . This stock is doing pretty good.
I bought 200 shares at this level. Hope it will turn around soon.
i would say it's a free fall here though irritating
If you have the $$$$ it's time to load up on it -IMO-I'm figuring there might be one more pullback before it shoots upward.I don't have the extra $$$ right now or i would buy some more shares.
reaching a technical buy point here.....

Roku’s Nielsen Deal Means It Can Make Money Off Traditional TV Viewers. Here’s How.
Roku surprised analysts last month with a fourth-quarter profit.
Seanlockephotography/Dreamstime
Roku’s deal for Nielsen’s advertising video business boosts the size of its potential market and makes it more valuable to programmers going directly after consumers, an analyst at KeyBanc Capital Markets said.
Earlier this week, streaming platform Roku (ticker: ROKU) said it was buying Nielsen’s Advanced Video Advertising unit, which includes technology that makes it easier for advertisers to target specific audiences.
Roku has more than 51 million accounts using its platform to stream everything from live television to on-demand content from subscription services such as Netflix (NFLX).
The Nielsen (NLSN) deal means Roku can make money off people who watch TV the traditional way—tuning into a scheduled program on its original channel, according to KeyBanc Capital Markets analyst Justin Patterson.
“This increases value to programmers who can now leverage Roku to grow both their direct-to-consumer (D2C) and linear TV revenue streams,” Patterson said in a note. “We believe this represents a material positive.”
He estimates average revenue per user will increase 50% this year, compared with 2020.
Roku also has a deal to acquire the content library of defunct Quibi, adding 75 shows and documentaries and other content.
Patterson raised his rating on Roku stock to Overweight from Sector Weight with a $518 price target.

Roku Will Take Lion's Share Of Streaming TV Market, According To Cathie Wood
Ark Investment Management Founder and CEO Cathie Wood joined Benzinga's "Raz Report" for an exclusive interview Wednesday. She shared her thoughts on several stocks, including Roku Inc (NASDAQ:ROKU).
Wood on Roku: Wood sees a huge transition from linear television to streaming television. When asked where the $70 billion in annual advertising for linear television will go, the answer from Wood is the streaming leaders.
“The surprise is Roku,” Wood said, noting that most people point to Facebook Inc (NASDAQ:FB) and Amazon.com (NASDAQ:AMZN) being possible winners in the shift. “Roku is becoming the operating system of streaming TV.”
Roku started its own channel and recently acquired Quibi to add more of its own original content. This could lead to additional advertising revenue.
Wood thinks Roku and Amazon are going to “take the lion’s share of the market.”

Roku is also a top 10 holding in the Ark Next Generation Internet ETF (NYSE:ARKW).
ROKU Price Action: Roku shares are down 4% $373.17 at publication time.

Fresh all time high here today Again
once again investors here (at least a bit) aren't paying attention to the true growth picture here. This is still ground levels. App based TV is the future and Roku has it cornered and is very user friendly. There are so many apps that consumers will soon tire of having to use a million different things and will continue to use roku's all in one interface
