Seagate launches personalised Roku channel

July 24, 2014

"Streaming of entertainment content continues to grow – two-thirds of US broadband households currently connect a CE device to their TV sets – meaning that consumers have a wide variety of viewing options beyond traditional broadcast and pay-TV," said Barbara Kraus, director of research for Parks Associates, explaining the rationale for such a move. "Roku is the most-used streaming media player in the US.
