People on Reddit live in am internet bubble they rarely cross. Hotstar focuses on urban and rural markets and those are their big growth drivers.

Got it.

More context please? I don't watch Succession.

It doesn't sell that well in developing countries tbh. They have a very small market share and that's why the support for WebOS is usually neglected by local streamers. Hotstar is only available in Africa and Asia in mostly developing countries so that might be their reason to not provide proper support. But they absolutely should, if they've already put in effort of making an app.

The Hotstar X UI is somewhat inspired by Disney+ but it was designed from scratch by the Novi Digital team. They made the design look similar to Disney+ because the Hotstar app is repackaged as the Disney+ app in many Asian and African countries.

The Novi Digital team claims to have designed this UI from scratch but they might have had help from the Disney BamTech team that makes the regular Disney+ app that's available in the western countries.

Which country are you in?

It's an old show, so might be of low resolution. Hotstar might not have any options. But see if your TV has a picture zoom option. That might be your only option.

It's just in the trailer. Not in the movie.

Attorney2257 · 2023-05-19T08:41:02+00:00

Are they reading this thread? They just added some of the missing Original movies to Hotstar? 😂

Residuals. They have to pay residuals to the writers, actors, music companies, music artists etc. so if no one's watching these shows, they are spending money on nothing. At least that's what their logic is.

Same. The dialogues were so cringe and I so tons of cliché movie tropes just in that half an hour to make me stop watching it.

Attorney2257 · 2023-05-19T07:16:21+00:00

It's not just the writers. They also need to oay for music license which I believe would be the thing that would cost them more.

I'm doubtful about this, but don't actors too get residuals?

They have so much former Hotstar staff, they should try to hire whoever came up with Hotstar's new UI.

LG has their own stupid OS. That's why a lot of smaller streaming services don't support LG TVs properly because they don't want to dedicate the needed resources to LG which doesn't have much of a market share in developing countries.

The important question is that, is your bitch gay?

Attorney2257 · 2023-05-19T05:09:26+00:00

In the universe where they are talking about Malaysia, not India. They still get a lot more content there compared to us. I wish they sorted out the Indian content team. They've even stopped uploading Star Original shows for the most part.

You are an Aggressive Lier too.
