Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
SkyQ users discovered that on day 1 - it was on SkyQ from the D+ launch day in March.
HDR is not available on SkyQ - and it seems 4K is only available for Disney+ devices if HDR is also supported.
I unserstand the plan is to intergrate into the SkyQ search only if you subscribe via Sky - which is not yet an option.

That depends on what you really like Vince as this list might be helpful for you.

On Amazon Prime l thought the menu make up could not get any worse but its even worse now then it was before to scroll through personally for me.

If Chernobyl is on there it’s a must watch. Tough to watch at times, harrowing, but excellently done.

The ROKU channel has launched in UK on ROKU, NOWTV and SKYQ.
The ROKU channel has loads of free movies and tv shows, the USA version does give the option to subscribe to channels too wether or not that will launch in uk too in the future i do not know.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
I don't own any of those devices, no Android app available or any way to sideload?

Unlikely. In the U.K. it only looks like Roku supported TV devices and the Sky platforms support it and to my knowledge they don’t (understandably) have a native Apple TV or Fire TV app, even in the US and it’s likely Sky will have bagged it as an exclusive due to theirs and Roku’s close ties.

Unless I’m mistaken I believe like the IOS App, it’s primarily a remote control app and requires a Roku running on the same wireless network.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
Yeah, you need to have a Roku for it to work. Googling says I can use a bookmark for the browser but it says not available in your area.

Yes agree Chernobyl was excellent , Entourage would be another recommendation for Vince if comedy is their thing.
