Roku & Now TV going down tomorrow

Just to give users of these services the heads up:

Never thought about streaming services going down for maintenance before, but I guess they have to on occasions.

Does anyone know if this will affect Plex where it's been sideloaded?

tbf, the Services are not "going down".

Planned maintenance taking place on Wednesday 23rd August 2017 will affect users of both Roku and Now TV streaming devices and will mean that although users will be able to keep streaming channels already installed on devices, it will not be possible to activate new devices or access the Roku Channel Store to add channels for up to six hours. The facility to make purchases from some channels will also be temporarily disabled.

Customers will be able to access the channels they already have, just not add new channels or devices for up to six hours.

Yes, that's right. Maybe the headline is a little confusing.
