Roku is testing autoplay video ads with audio on its home screen, a move consistent with CEO Anthony Wood's history of maximizing ad exposure dating back to his time at Replay TV. Simultaneously, major streaming platforms are moving away from the "binge" model in favor of weekly episode releases for shows like White Lotus. This strategic shift is intended to reduce subscriber churn by forcing viewers to maintain paid accounts over several months to finish a series.
