A long proud history of removing products/services that are great.
I just went and bought several more so I can have them for years.

Looks like they'll still be supported...hopefully for a while. I get a lot of use out of mine in hotels.

My 13 y/o, who likes to randomly shove the TV remote in the couch cushions, would say that should be standard feature on every remote ever made. "DAD!, Where's the remote????"
I've actually thought about how to build something similar to attach to one...

I really wish they'd stop with the dedicated app buttons. I press these about 15 times accidentally for every 1 time I press them on purpose. I finally decided to just remap the Netflix button on my Shield remote.

Oh look, Google is gonna pick my content for me.
Maybe they'll recommend 1776 starring Halle Barry as Betsy Ross and Denzel Washington as George.

Lol, I get it.
Google is a phenomenal company built for all the wrong reasons. Wish I could embrace more than hold-my-nose-and-use-it support.

That's a feature, not a bug. Those companies pay a ton of money to get those buttons.

How are we supposed to synchronize our TVs on game days?
Thought only chrome cast could do this without wires. We usually have games on at least three screens and nothing worse than them being tens of seconds apart.
ETA we use Roku Ultra and stream stick for normal watching.
