Starting today, Roku is rolling out the premium subscriptions to channels like Showtime and Starz that the company promised earlier this month would be coming soon.
The subscriptions will be available through the Roku Channel, which already offers movies, TV shows and live news, and users will pay for everything via one bill. Roku is pushing out an update that makes this possible to all Roku-supported devices in the coming weeks, and it’s also not leaving out users who don’t own one of the company’s devices. If you have the Roku mobile app for iOS, for example, viewing of The Roku Channel from within the app is available starting today, while an update for Android devices is expected to start rolling out in mid-February.
