@Ginny,

Due to DRM limitations and restrictions in our contracts with the TV networks, we are unable to support viewing on external devices at this time.

    You may want to tell your sales agents to stop telling people otherwise then because that's false information and very misleading.

      I agree Spectrum has had this for years. I recommend youtube tv or Hulu live tv as it has all of this. YouTube tv also gives you free cloud DVR unlimited

        I just got back from Satellite Beach, Florida visiting relatives.   They have the

        Spectrum App on their Roku TVs and get all the channels they pay for.

        Considering they have 4 Roku TVs they save on not having to rent a cable

        box.   Their summer home is in Virginia and they have Xfinity Cable and they

        also have an App for Roku.  So simple yet so complicated for COX.

    Spectrum and Xfinity don't seem to have a problem with their programing on a Roku device.
