Roku UK Channel Store - Weekly RoundUp #160





Hi, everyone !!



As has been the case for the past month, we've had yet another bumper crop of new additions to the "Official" Roku UK Channel Store during the last seven days. As a result, I have (once again) been somewhat hard-pushed for time today and, with further details for all of the Roku-related news stories from the past week still to follow, I'm going to have to jump straight into the list of new channel additions and then flesh-out those other aspects of this article as and when I get the chance. That said, you can always look back over the information shared via the companion Twitter Feed: @ukrokuchannels and you'll find most (if not all) of the Roku news there.


In addition to that... there is also a "missing" link to a 'Roku Guide' review for "Paper Crafts" which was submitted to the channel store by Fawesome TV but, when it was added to the "Official" Roku USA Channel Store, there was no listing for it in the "New" category and I only spotted it after noticing a discrepancy in the total channel figure for the "Special Interest" genre. As usual, the 'Roku Guide' review will be added to this post as and when it gets published. Meanwhile, it is worth noting that this channel is available to Roku owners in the USA (as evidenced by it's inclusion in the Roku web channel store) and readers of this blog from the United States can follow the link (provided below the "Paper Crafts" channel icon) to the Roku channel description until such time as the review is posted by 'Roku Guide'. Anyway, here is what we have for you so far:-

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



Anyhow, like it or not, that is your lot for this week and, whilst it barely amounts to eighty per cent of the thirty channels which made it into the "Official" Roku USA Channel Store during the same time-frame, it's better to get 24 NEW CHANNELS than none at all... as I'm sure you'll agree?!


Either way, hopefully everyone in the UK with a Roku player managed to find something they like within the twenty-four "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 new channels to your Roku, IT'S YOUR CHOICE  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 eighty-six 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 !!
