It's really pathetic. Reminds me of when phone manufacturers make a hardware button stop doing what people are used to and make it do Feature-Of-The-Month. Sorry, your power button now turns on FeatureX instead of toggling power. All so a fraction of a percent of users accidentally and unintentionally invoke unwanted features.

My Roku remote still has an Rdio button. Makes me sad each time I notice it.

Streaming device makers make a significant share of their gross margins from sales of those buttons.

(That and an Apple-like mandatory revenue share on the channels that users choose / install.)
