The Roku Channel

Following last year's collaboration to bring holiday music straight to the TV, iHeartRadio and Roku are once again partnering to launch holiday music channels as well as introducing a full lineup of free, ad-supported TV music channels with companion visuals on The Roku Channel. Beginning Wednesday, users will find a dozen holiday and genre-based iHeartRadio channels right from The Roku Channel's Live TV Guide.

iHeart is the first audio + streaming service to launch linear audio channels with companion visuals within an ad-supported Video on Demand service.

These ad-supported stations (which include holiday favorites as well as iHeartCountry Radio, Hit Nation, Alt Radio, iHeart80s Radio and more) will feature imagery to complement and enhance the audio experience. Available on Roku devices, The Roku Channel mobile app, Web, Samsung Smart TVs and Amazon Fire TVs, the stations have been programmed to fit seamlessly within The Roku Channel's Live TV Guide alongside offerings from other publishers.
