In my experience Roku seems to be the platform to get new channels quicker. I am not sure if this has to do with them being more friendly towards developers, or maybe an easier to use SDK, but they were leading in terms of content availability for a long time. I specifically chose it because they had Netflix while Apple TV did not.
This may change as Apple TV becomes a competitive piece of hardware (everything except the past generation was not IMO), but as of right now they are pretty much on par.
- saturdaysaint 11y agoUntil this generation, getting a channel onto the Apple TV was essentially restricted to huge media companies, and was limited to a kludgy little markup language, so I think we'll see pretty quickly that comparing last gen Apple TV to Roku isn't going to be indicative of the platforms' futures.
