While trying to find something on Paramount Plus, which I have, it suggested Paramount Plus on Roku, a different channel which I don't have installed but of which they definitely get a cut. When there are two Paramount Plus devices on the same Roku, plus Roku's own "Roku Channel," plus Howdy... It's too much.
