Along with the introduction of the 2015 Roku 2 & 3 comes the new “Roku Feed” feature. At launch, it’s pinned to the Roku home screen as My Feed and provides an interface to “follow” new movies – easily keeping tabs on when a title moves from the big screen to a digital rental or purchase, along with sale updates. The area is a bit spartan at the moment and sadly Roku’s fantabulous universal search doesn’t yet integrate with upcoming releases – so new movies must be manually browsed. But we imagine this functionality will ultimately integrate tighter with Roku Search, including voice, and perhaps content-beyond-movies will be included. Heck, there’s still room for agnostic video playlists.
