In the past, the broadcast television signals from the television station have been received by the television receiver.

Netflix offers three streaming plans: Basic, Standard, and Premium. Basic streaming plan costs $8.99 per month, Standard streaming plan costs $12.99 per month and Premium costs $15.99 per month Exclusive Content Netflix and Amazon Prime telecast their own content which will not be available in any other video streaming apps.

There are several examples of the OTT services like if someone wants to buy the share of stock, in the traditional way, your stockbroker should be physically present there to should your share numbers and fix the price. The counterparty will accept or reject based on the price. But now, the stocks are purchased online and accepted nearly instantly - bypassing the traditional system and letting many other participants take part and raise their voice. OTT Content OTT Content - Instead of paying for the cable operators to deliver the content, people started using online video streaming apps like Netflix, Hulu, and Youtube TV. It lets people watch programs in their free hours and even they can pause, forward, backward the video. OTT Devices Some of the OTT Devices are Roku, Chromecast, and Fire Stick.

Opportunities in OTT You can build a Video Streaming App like Netflix, Amazon Prime, etc or ad-based platforms like Youtube and generate revenue using this. After building the app get the license to stream the original contents in your platform. In this coronavirus pandemic season, here is a huge business that is hidden. Let me explain to you. It is not possible and safe to open theatres and release movies. So what we can do with the films which are ready to release? We cannot simply waste the efforts and money spent on producing those movies. So the producers can sell those movies to any one of the video streaming app holders who can stream the original content. Every time the end-users watch that movie the producer earns a particular percentage of money. So everyone is profited here. So if you own a video streaming app you can get those movies and stream in your platform. Your subscribes will automatically increase when you release movies of popular actors or directors. In upcoming months it is expected that most of the movies are going to be released in video streaming apps like Netflix, Amazon Prime, etc. So make use of the golden opportunity. And even you can build a mid-ware like Amazon’s Fire T VStick which is a new device joining the ranks of home entertainment streaming technologies. The Fire Stick plugs into your TV’s HDMI port giving you access to your favorite TV shows, movies, subscription services, music, photos, and games.
