Revenue, it said, is up 2. In an interview with Tech. Crunch, Iflix CEO Mark Britt played down inevitable comparisons with Netflix, insisting that the services do not share the same target audience.“We very genuinely don’t see Netflix as a competitor, we see ourselves as providing a new service for the mass markets,” he said. Britt explained that Netflix’s model targets the global elite, those with high- end devices like an i. Phone, disposable income and a credit card for payment. Iflix, he claimed, is aimed at those with lower- end devices and poorer quality internet access, but a desire to always consume on mobile.“If Netflix is the i.

We’d love to be a secondary choice to the upper socials — if you love Netflix you should probably get Iflix as an addition — but for the mass market, the majority of their consumption is on a mobile device.”Iflix chairman Patrick Grove at a promotional event in Bangkok, Thailand, earlier this year.

Britt said that Iflix may also look to enter new regions, too, with Latin America on the list of potential entries thanks to its similarities with regions where Iflix already plays.“The opportunity is very real in emerging markets globally,” he added. TV has gone from stalling in the last few years to actual decline in most emerging markets. Our understanding of that is that it is actually yesterday’s product [since] the majority of the emerging classes worldwide are aged under 2. We’re the only platform talking with [studios and producers] about what this new experience should look like for these 1.
