Comment on Setting the Record Straight on Torparent

Probably a restriction imposed by HBO because they have been so terrified of loosing their content into non-traditional outlets.

Definitely not this. HBO has written an app specifically for the Roku. As far as I can tell, Comcast is the only provider who disallows access to the Roku version of the app.

I can use the HBO Android app with Comcast just fine and push to a Chromecast, but not the Roku.

It's a ridiculous situation, Comcast is intentionally blocking Roku while HBO is embracing it.

Ahh, I stand corrected then.
