They are an ad and media distribution company.

The hardware looses them $80m+ while the add and media distribution brings them in $1b+.

I did not know this. Can you expand on it? When I was on Roku channel it looked like it was all free. I didn't watch long enough to notice if it had advertising embeded in it. If it is ad supported your telling me after distribution costs their advertising network brings in 1b+?
