Roku are just meeting their open source obligations. You couldn't build your own streamer from that stuff - it's the platform and supporting libraries that Roku's application sits on, not the application itself. Lots of embedded devices provide their source code. Its amazing how much stuff is built on Linux. Even Sony uses it a bunch.
