Yes, I agree with that last part. Advertizing that one has a Roku box (or, better yet, does NOT have a Roku box) would make for a good revenue source for the TV manufacturer!

Off should mean off. LG really has no justification, IMO, to collect file names of the USB drives. That should be entirely off limits.
