Roku UK Channel Store - Weekly RoundUp #148





Hi, everyone !!




Having drawn a complete blank last week, at least there was a reasonable crop of new additions to the "Official" Roku UK Channel Store during the last seven days. We did fall (ever so slightly) short of the weekly average from last year - which was just over 16 channels per week, in case you were unaware - but there are some really great new apps, including a couple of unique ones (not on Roku in USA) for followers of Punjabi news, among those on offer this week. That said, there were some extra details for one or two of them, as well as a couple of "missing" reviews which were not available from 'Roku Guide' at the time this post was first compiled. Consequently, being (once again) somewhat pushed for time, I'm going to jump straight into the list of new channel additions and will flesh-out the Roku-related news aspects of the article and other "missing" details as & when I get the chance. Meanwhile, you can always look back over the info shared via the companion Twitter Feed: @ukrokuchannels since my previous 'Weekly RoundUp was posted and you'll find most (if not all) of the news there, if you're unable to pay us another visit in a day or two from now. Anyway, here goes:-

Anyhow, like it or not, that is your lot for this week and, whilst it doesn't quite equate to even half the thirty-two channels which made it into the "Official" Roku USA Channel Store during the same time-frame, it's better to have the above choice of 15 NEW CHANNELS than none at all... don't you think?!


Either way, hopefully everyone in the UK with a Roku player managed to find something they like within the fifteen "public" channels outlined above... or else from the "private" channels, whose access codes were "gifted" to you via the companion Twitter Feed to this blog, at various points throughout the last seven days. That said, if you didn't find anything to add to your Roku channel selection from the assortment of channels on offer this week, you can always pay us a visit another time when, with any luck, there will be something more to your liking. Afterall, there's no point installing every channel because like I've said before... when it comes to adding more new channels to your Roku devices, IT'S YOUR CHOICE and, as with all things Roku... THE CHOICE IS ALWAYS YOURS!



*********************************************



As mentioned previously, you can expect my usual summary of all the goings-on (or not) in the (severely restricted) Roku Channel Store that features on NowTV Boxes to follow in the near future. Meanwhile, whether you happen to own a Roku player, a NowTV Box, OR BOTH, as I do... be sure to check my earlier posts (as mentioned before) for all the new additions to the "Official" Roku UK Channel Store in each of the seventy-four preceding weeks and then come back again in seven days' time for my next 'Weekly RoundUp'. However, if you can't wait that long, remember you can always keep up with all the UK Roku action (as it happens) throughout the coming week, by following the companion Twitter Feed: @ukrokuchannels where up-to-the-minute info on all things Roku-related (here in the UK) is posted on a daily basis (well, almost).



Until the next time, then...



That's all folks !!
