October 24, 2018

In recent years, a host of video streaming services have emerged in Asia, including local players like Thailandbased Doonee, India-based Hotstar, Malaysia-based iflix and Singapore-based HOOQ, as well as global ones like Netflix and Amazon Prime Video.

VOD services are expected to have over 400 million paying subscribers across Asia by 2022.
