Roku UK Channel Store - Weekly RoundUp #353





Hi, everyone !!



With such a huge number of new Roku channels released last week, you could easily be forgiven for thinking there might have been a decrease in output over the last seven days, but (instead) I'm pleased to report that we've had ANOTHER MAMMOTH CROP OF NEW CHANNELS to further boost the UK Channel Store total. To wit, ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY-THREE NEW ROKU APPS have been added to the already vast selection of over eight thousand six hundred apps which populated the channel store as of this time last week. That means we've now seen over four thousand eight hundred new apps made available, during a period of just forty-eight weeks, any of which UK Roku owners can add to the individual selection of apps that are installed on their device(s). As if that wasn't enough... there were also several items of streaming-related news for me to report on but, as has been the case in recent times, I must (again) postpone my summary of Roku (and other) news from the past seven days until I can find time to catch up with everything and add the "missing" details to this post - since, right now, I must (instead) focus on listing all these 140+ new Roku apps for you! :-)


Before I get into the current list of channels, however, I would just like to point-out that the ongoing issue of "missing" reviews from the 'Roku Guide' website appears to have worsened (yet again) since my last mention of it on this blog. Over the last forty-eight weeks, my 'Weekly RoundUp' posts have seen a total of 4,840 new channels added. Meanwhile, the number of 'Roku Guide' reviews being published during that time has continued to fall short of the mark. Quite how they managed to produce only 9 reviews, with none actually from the current week, but; five more from last week, and; four US-only channels, when there were upwards of 143+ new Roku channels released in the past seven days, is beyond me! :-O Unfortunately, this can't be seen as being an exception to the rule... because, digging through their archives, it soon becomes clear this has been happening all too frequently. Looking at all of the articles they've published since the start of the year, there has been a total of only 1,100 new reviews added to their website. So, with a minimum of one hundred and forty-three more "missing" reviews from the past week, they remain more than seventy-five percent short of where they should be and, if this continues, there could be hundreds (if not thousands) more Roku apps with no corresponding review for me to provide a link from the 'Weekly RoundUp' posts on my blog. I hope the shortfall is addressed soon because, as mentioned 46 weeks ago, the current situation isn't good for anyone connected to Roku: be they end-users, developers, bloggers like myself, or even Roku - whose platform is the source 'Roku Guide' use to compile the reviews! :-O


Still, back to the list... which, as always, will help you to identify the very latest apps that have been added to Roku devices in the UK. Other websites offering Roku channel listings will base their contents on the Roku USA Channel Store, which means they also include apps that are unavailable to UK Roku users. So, like I've said before... if you really want to know what's available channel-wise, for owners of Roku devices in the UK, you need to be reading this blog each and every week! ;-) :-)


With twice the number of active links to check out, not just for this week... but each and every post that has been previously published as part of my 'Weekly RoundUp' series over the last six and three quarter years, there's a *lot* to catch-up on. So, without further ado, here's my 'Weekly RoundUp' of all the new Roku channels released between 8th December 2019 and 14th December 2019:-

Nor should it be mistaken for the (slightly) shorter-named 'Pelis HD' channel that followed (less than two months later) in October 2019 and featured as part of my "Roku UK Channel Store - Weekly RoundUp #343" post. The situation has been further complicated by the fact that all three versions share the exact same Roku channel icon (aka 'HD Poster' image) which only serves to make matters even more confusing whenever you are browsing through the channel store categories! :-/ :-|

***FILED UNDER: "XXXXXX" in the Roku UK Channel Store WHEN FIRST RELEASED***




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



Anyhow, like it or not, that is your lot this week and, while I don't yet have an exact figure for the new apps which were added to the "Official" Roku USA Channel Store in the same time-frame, at least you have another ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY-THREE NEW CHANNELS to keep you occupied while I check the numbers! :-) Meanwhile, for those still clinging-on to their NowTV device(s) for whatever reason, there were zero new Roku channels (apps) added to the 'App Store' on NOW TV products yet again... meaning the total number of apps available remains at just forty-one! :-(


Moreover, with no 'TVPlayer', or 'Prime Video', or 'Apple TV' apps (to name but three) among the selection of channels in the NOW TV 'App Store' - despite having dedicated channels for all of them on UK Roku devices - the range of NowTV-branded products continues to fall short of the mark in terms of current streaming needs for many in the UK. So, the best way to increase your choice of streaming services, is to swap any NowTV-branded products you own for genuine Roku-branded media players and gain access to 8,700+ apps of content, from a vast assortment of providers! :-D ;-)


In any event, hopefully everyone in the UK with a Roku player managed to find something they like within the one hundred and forty-three "public" channels outlined above... or else the "private" channels "gifted" to you via the companion Twitter Feed: @ukrokuchannels to this blog, at various points over the past six and three quarter years. However, if you didn't find anything to add to your own Roku channel selection from the vast assortment of apps 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. After all there is no point installing every app since, when it comes to adding new streaming channels to your Roku devices, IT'S YOUR CHOICE and, as with all things Roku... THE CHOICE IS ALWAYS YOURS! ;-) :-)



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


As touched upon previously, you can expect my usual summary of all the goings-on (or not) in the (severely restricted) Roku Channel Store (aka "App Store") that features on NowTV devices to carry on in future posts. Meanwhile, whether you happen to own a Roku player, NowTV Box, OR BOTH, as I do... be sure to check my earlier posts (as mentioned previously) for details of all new additions to the "Official" Roku UK Channel Store in each of the two hundred & seventy-nine preceding weeks, then come back again in seven days' time for my next 'Weekly RoundUp'. Hopefully, by the time I make my next post, I may even have sorted out another (new) companion Twitter Feed to replace the now suspended: @ukrokuchannels account so there'll still be a presence on the social media platform via which up-to-the-minute info on Roku-related matters (here in the UK) is posted on a daily basis! :-)



Until the next time, then...



That's all folks !!

    1. Hi, Phil...

      Great to hear from you again! :-)

      Thanks so much for your kind words and for continuing to support this blog. It means a lot for me to hear from regular (long-time) readers, such as yourself, who appreciate the effort put in every week to keep these listings up-to-date and make Roku users aware of all the latest additions (apps-wise) to the Roku Channel Store.

      There should be plenty more to come as we get into the new year... with a UK version of the 'Disney+' app due to arrive sometime in March 2020 and (hopefully) we'll be able to get 'BT Sport' on Roku devices (plus NOW TV boxes and sticks) in the not too distant future, as well :-D

      Anyway, our best wishes to you and your family for a 'Merry Christmas' and a 'Happy New Year' - let's hope it's a good one, without any tears (as the song says)! ;-) :-)
