Default Amazon accuses Roku of software SNAFU

Instant video becomes very remote video

UK customers of TV player Roku running Amazon found themselves stuffed and without service yesterday.

And the service still isn’t running properly for British customers. One told Fudzilla tonight he wanted to watch the Kill Bill film, but was frustrated when he was redirected to America.

SNAFU is an ancient Geek term for “situation normal, all f**** up” and sources within Amazon claimed the problem is down to a Roku software development engineer (SDE) getting it terribly wrong, and in the process causing the giant grocer to lose money.
