@George Hofmeister Thanks for your thought provoking, and insightful comments on this subject. I was making the (fairly logical) assumption that it was due to a failed deal between LG & Freeview Play, as the article I quoted from seemed to suggest that. Although, of course unless we are able to get sight of leaked emails and all the negotiation and monetary details (highly unlikely), we will probably nerver get to know what the issue was, or which direction the "royalty money flow" actually was going. I looked at the article I found below, an article that mentioned the fees that Roku charge for "ease-of-use" direct access buttons (like Netfix and Stan etc), and I had never thought about that. It is quite an innovative "Business Model" that seems very lucrative! Thanks for opening my eyes to this! 🤑 https://www.theverge.com/circuitbreaker/2020/4/24/21232655/netflix-button-tv-remotes-advertisement-marketing-streaming

FYI: while researching some other LG mysteries, I came across this GREAT site with VERY good visuals explaining the different model numbering schemes for all the older and newer LG models. This goes from 2011 through to 2020, and is very comprehensive and easy to understand, so hats off to whoever put this all together: https://en.tab-tv.com/?page_id=7111 Apologies if this has been posted before (and the experts on here may know this stuff already), but even if in the middle of a thread, I think it deserves its own seperate topic. I am sure it will help someone.. 😊
