HOOQ, a video-on-demand(VoD) joint venture of Singtel, Sony Pictures Television and Warner Bros, announced new partnerships from Paramount Pictures, BBC Worldwide and Endemol Shine, that will see blockbuster movies to hit the service within three months of their theatrical release.
At the same time, HOOQ also announced a new service that delivers movies fresh from the cinema to your home – Transactional VOD (TVOD).
To top it all off, customers subscribing to the current Subscription VOD (SVOD) service will be able to enjoy one movie from the TVOD library each month as part of their SVOD subscription at no additional cost.
With the tagline of 'built in Asia for Asia', HOOQ’s formula has been to be a subscription VoD service, whether it is HOOQ’s world first download capability for Hollywood, its weekly pricing or its ad-free freemium model, HOOQ has continue to evolve its business model for Asia, said the company.
This success comes from HOOQ’s strategy of combining the best Asian and Hollywood content with a solid distribution partner network of the top telcos and broadband providers in the region including AIS, Airtel, Globe Telecom, Telkom, and Telkomsel, just to name a few. HooQ said it has secured over millions of subscribers across Asia.
