VOD content from the network is also available on select virtual MVPD services (including [[DirecTV Stream]], [[YouTube TV]] and [[Hulu]]), and through HBO's dedicated [[Roku#The Roku Channel|Roku]] video channel. HBO on Demand offers theatrical feature films from HBO's distribution partners and original programming previously seen on the network (including weekly series, documentaries, sports magazine and documentary programs, and concert and stand-up comedy specials). The service's rotating program selection incorporates newer film titles and episodes that are added to the platform following their debut on the linear feed, as well as library content (including complete seasons of the network's past and present original programs).<ref>{{cite book|title=The Television Will Be Revolutionized|author=Amanda D.
