“Multiple content players have held onto traditional content windowing strategies for years, but OTT technologies and emerging business models have finally forced these companies to experiment with new windowing strategies,” said Glenn Hower, Research Analyst, Parks Associates. “New models for movies include day-and-date availability, as with the movie Beasts of No Nation, where it was released for streaming the same day as in the theatre. For streaming TV shows like Jessica Jones or Transparent, viewers can watch full seasons all at once, satisfying binge-happy viewers. Consumers have quickly adopted these new habits as part of their OTT monthly subscriptions.”
