"There was a rumor Turner Classic was to put out a channel for ROKU for about 5 bucks a month."

Do you mean Warner Archive Instant, which appears to have the same film library? Or the real TCM?

TCM for $5/month would be a great deal.

This was a web rumor that I googled to death and found where TCM had thought about setting up internet streaming ROKU could access, but their agreements with cable & satellite seemingly stopped it. Then another place said TCM was still perusing it, and probably cost about 5 bucks.

I see it coming. Warner IMO does not have nearly the content TCM does, but I might take their free trial to see if they are worth $10 a month. I also enjoy TCM’s commentary about each classic they show. I would definitely pay $10 for TCM considering we paid cable $79 per month and watched mostly TCM.

It’s so refreshing to watch movies of yesteryear when codes prohibited certain content. Lefty actors, excessive sex, fags, and plotless blood & brain spattering violence rules out so much of todays films. I just cannot see what a fully nude sex scene or gory violence does for a film.

we have Netflix on ROKU. 8$/Mo.
After Netflix lost a 3rd party content provider, their streaming movie selection dropped off. They really are sorta slim in movie selection. They did add a lot of anime puke....
