With the ongoing events of the prevalent mergers of well-known OTT platforms aiming for better business and viewership, the construction of domains by app developers based on such ideas by mammoths is equally demanding. But can it be noteworthy for something more brilliant? Or rather equally prevalent?
Here is where the dream of an app developer to pursue his/her desirable course based on education is coming out. How impactful will it be?
This is regarding the spot news in 2023 about the speculations of the Disney+Hotstar OTT platform with an idea by the former to either sell or merge the latter with an Indian competitor, due to its losing number of daily active users after the loss of the IPL Streaming license.
Furthermore, a hypothetic view of the Viacom18 OTT platform, which is owned by Reliance, might be a major player in acquiring such a platform was becoming notable. Also, streaming services like Sony and Zee were planning for a merger.
Are these app developers becoming a ‘nightmare’ for such big corporates whom the world looks up to in a much more ‘honourable’ way?
Subsequently, the case studies of the mergers by Reliance like Jio and Saavn, which is a music streaming platform from Jio acquired another music platform named Saavn, and thereby changed their domain to ‘JioSaavn’ hence becoming an inspiration for such developers.
However, as such a merger has already taken place, then the possibility of a domain like ‘JioHotstar’ can be considered as it is available now. Apart from being a very fitting brand name for such an entity, it is believed to maintain the brand equity of both brands as well as provide a rational transition for the present users of both sites.
Moreover, this acceptance of such a billion-dollar company can be able to satisfy the dream of an enthusiast to pursue his/her education in the dream institution abroad and can be a relaxation to the fear of expense.
