Roku, for its part, managed to add a Time Warner Cable TV app, YouTube on Roku 3, WatchESPN (live access to ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, ESPN3, ESPN Deportes and ESPNEWS), and WATCH Disney Channel, WATCH Disney Junior and WATCH Disney XD. However, some of those require authentication (proof that you get those channels through a pay-TV subscription). Roku currently supports over 1,000 channels and back in August was the most used OTT set-top device (according to Parks Associates, vs. Apple TV, Sony, TiVO, Netgear, SlingBox and Boxee, with an other category).
