Would the LDSTech community be interested in starting a Mormon Channel port for Roku? There are numerous other religious channels already and it could be a great area to spread the good news. Most of the content featured on the iPod/iPad app, Android app, etc., will work with the streaming media nature of the Roku. Anyhow, just a thought I had last night while we were watching some shows on our Roku.

Here's a link to the Roku SDK if anyone want to peak around at the option:

An official effort is already underway. See the thread containing this post:

Your suggestions on additional content are welcome as well and appreciated. We'll have to engage BYUTV in some talks, seems to be a very hot item.
It would probably be best to give any responses to that thread, rather than this new one.
