Things to Consider Before Subscribing To a Streaming OTT Platform

The diversified range of the platforms can seem to make you feel confused if you are someone who is new to this world of OTT platforms and IPTV subscription. So it is always better to check on the number of benefits you are going to get from a certain platform before opting for a random subscription pack blindly.

Here are some of the suggestions which you might go through before subscribing to a new OTT platform:

  • The TV and internet providers and the telecom service operators are bundling these days quite often. So if you have an airtel connection and if you recharge it with certain packs, you will get free access to its streaming platform which is Airtel XStream. And the same formula applies to Jio and Vodafone too. Hence, do check whether you are having free access to any of the streaming platforms before opting for any.
  • There are a number of OTT platforms like Disney+ Hotstar, Zee5, Voot, etc. that offer free access to certain shows, series, and movies. Besides, there are some like MX Player which has several originals and you don’t need to pay anything for watching it. Even though the quality is not that good but some are really thrilling ones too!
  • You can choose for a free trial pack which is offered by almost all the well-known OTT Platforms like Netflix, Amazon Prime, etc., and see which one has better content of the genre you like or prefer to watch. Even though you need to put in your account details but you will have the option to cancel the subscription if you don’t feel satisfied.
  • Many of the online streaming OTT platforms offer a variety of subscription packs. While some offer package of three months or on a monthly basis many did start launching a pay-per-view option too which does not ask you to subscribe to it similar to YouTube.

Some find Amazon Prime to be more engaging while some feel satisfied with the streaming service of Jio. And hence, you can choose to sort out first which platform has the best contents according to your taste and opt for it accordingly.
