What’s Next for Roku?
Roku, the internet video player, which streams movies and TV shows from Netflix and Amazon, is going to be coming out with some new features soon, hopefully by the holiday shopping season.
Roku has distributed a software developers kit to media companies who want to add their offerings to Roku. This includes Blip.TVand Mediafly (both Web video/podcast companies) so far. We imagine all the big companies that do video on the Web — and, important, who want their video to appear on TV sets – will jump on, once it’s opened up, such as Revision3, Next New Networks, Boxee, YouTube, MLB Advanced Media, etc. Internet radio companies like Pandora and Last.fm, and photo sharing services like Flickr are fair game, too.
Roku will continue to announce new content partners. Blip.TV was announced recently, and will show up on set-top boxes this fall. We understand that Roku will be announcing a new partner next week. (We don’t know who it is.)

YouTube Announces Content Deals With Movie Studios – Internet Technology News Story – CNBC.com
As if you don’t already have enough ways to get your favorite TV shows and movies, YouTube is finally jumping into the fray. An agreement with some of the major studios now allows YouTube to legitimately show full length TV shows and movies in addition to it’s huge base of user generated content. With the growing number of High Quality and High Definition video clips already on YouTube, it was only a matter of time before the platform crossed over to mainstream media.
What does that mean for MoCA? Well, higher quality video streams require higher quality connections which bodes well for coax based networking. Whereas viewers of the classic short grainy videos didn’t really demand much in the way of quality, sitting through half hour and hours long movies and TV shows will be a different story.
