        What company would pay Roku to scan for all shows over HDMI, and then offer a listing of any and all of streaming channels offering it?

          Those channels precisely. They get ad revenue when you watch it on their channels. If they can get Roku to bring them traffic, Roku would charge for that. No engineering effort goes unpaid.
