Denmark's YouSee launches YouSee Play.
YouSee has launched a new entertainment offering that combines TV channels with streaming services.
According to the Danish operator, YouSee Play satisfies the growing desire among Danes for a variable selection of entertainment that is catered to the preferences and requirements of each individual home. The Nuuday business will also be hoping that the new package helps stop the subscriber loss it has been experiencing lately. YouSee claims that since more than half of Danish families mix streaming deals with TV packages, people end up paying for things they don’t utilize.
As the only Danish supplier, we are able to offer all five of the top streaming services (Netflix, Viaplay, TV 2 PLAY, HBO Max, and Disney+), which you can easily replace or add. YouSee Play now allows you to collect everything at an affordable price instead of having to pay for multiple streaming subscriptions, continues Morgan.
Beginning at the end of September, customers will start paying a monthly subscription fee of DKK 299, depending on the content they choose. Subscriptions from housing associations will receive a comparable offer in the future. Click here to read more.
Poland drives SVOD revenues.
By 2027, Eastern European SVoD revenue would increase to US$2.95 billion from US$1.6 billion, primarily due to Poland’s expansion. Poland will be the only nation in Eastern Europe to generate more than US$1bn in SVoD revenue by 2027, according UK analysis firm Digital TV Research.
Poland’s SVoD revenue is expected to reach US$1.09 by 2027, followed by Russia at US$605 million, Romania at US$215 million, the Czech Republic at US$152 million, Greece and Hungary at US$118 each, and Ukraine at US$106 million. Other countries’ SVoD revenues are expected to total US$550 million by 2027.
Only 16% of the region’s TV households will have a subscription to at least one SVoD platform by 2027, according to the business, so there will still be plenty of space for expansion after the projected period.
According to Simon Murray, chief analyst at Digital TV Research, “Revenues will climb from $0.93 billion in 2021 to $2.24 billion in 2027, excluding Russia and Ukraine, which is no small effort given that they combined account for 57% of the region’s TV consumers. The releases of Disney+, SkyShowtime, and HBO Max in 2022 served as the impetus for this. Click here to read more.
