Can you get Roku on Apple TV?

Curious as to if you can get Roku downloaded to Apple TV as a viewing app. If I have to spend money on a Roku, I'd almost rather just get a new Apple TV. Thank you!

MacBook Air, macOS High Sierra (10.13)

I am not fully understanding the question, William.

Roku is a streaming player with different apps or viewing services.

Apple TV is a streaming player with different apps or viewing services.

There are other streaming players (Amazon Firestick)


Some viewing services are common to both.
