Growth Factors in the Transactional Video on Demand Industry:
- Rising Demand for Flexibility and Personalized Content Consumption
Increasing customer demand for high definition content is one of the major growth drivers for the ultra high definition (UHD) and 4K market in the global transactional video on demand (TVOD) marketplace. Several platforms across the globe are investing in UHD and 4K. This enables the content to be enjoyed by early-adopters of new technology, as well as home cinema enthusiasts, and TVOD services have had to shift to include more premium content as TVs and devices have become widely available to consumers with 4K resolution technology, with greater expectations on sound, not just picture quality. In 2023, global sales of smart TVs were reported to have reached approximately 80 million units.
- Availability of Wide Range of Content
Finally, the global market has seen major streaming services release their premium content in waves to customers who pay for early access to bonus content, blockbuster films, and special editions. This is an important market, both for the ordinary consumer willing to pay for exclusive content and for major studios releasing major films directly to transactional video on demand to maximize earnings on major films. The model makes particular sense as an adjunct to subscription models and the customary windows in the theatrical exhibition cycle.
- Increasing Prevalence of Digital Platforms and Devices
The rise of digital devices has been a meaningful factor in the growth of the TVOD market. The increasing use of tablets, smartphones, smart TVs, laptops and computers has changed how audiences engage with digital content. According to industry estimates, in 2024, from the 8.08 billion people in the world, 4.88 billion people will be smartphone users, accounting for 60.42% of the world's population. Smartphones allow users to access TVOD services from anywhere, at any time, upon their preferred device. This suits a modern lifestyle. This lifestyle caters to the viewer. The viewer is on the move. The viewer expects instant gratification.
Key Trends in the Transactional Video on Demand Market
- Enhanced User Experience Through Technology
Platforms are improving the user experience, by including user interfaces, personalized AI-driven content recommendations, integrated payment systems, AI-driven content discovery to recommend relevant content to users, and adaptive bitrate streaming technology to provide smooth and durable distribution of content across a variety of data networks.
- Strategic Partnerships and Exclusive Content
Synergistic relationships between platforms and content creators have led to certain releases being handled exclusively by transactional video on demand (TVOD) sites, allowing these sites to provide content that draws subscribers motivated to access specific films and series earlier, as well as to compete with subscription-based services by offering exclusive content.
- Integration of Social Features
Some mainstream TVOD services have social features such as recommendations, watchlists and communities, as a way to keep users engaged and to increase word of mouth marketing. Features such as watch parties and shared viewing are becoming increasingly popular, particularly for younger audiences who value social connectivity and shared experiences in their viewing.
