I'm in the UK and I haven't experienced those sorts of issues. Maybe I've just been lucky with what I've signed up for, but I think it would be unfortunate to paint a really good product (IMHO) as bad unnecessarily.
The only issue I have is that, in the UK, you can't preload Amazon movies via the web for watching later, but that's an Amazon thing AIUI not Roku.

I've met a fair share of devices who simply refuse to work in continental EU while still demanding registration to US streaming services. Stupid issues like not being able to update Spotify app on Android (due to Play Store geoblocking) while the app demands update (and works after manually applying it).
