Key Terms

vod technical

VOD, or "video on demand," is a service that allows viewers to watch movies, TV shows, or other video content whenever they choose, instead of following a fixed broadcast schedule. For investors, companies offering VOD platforms are important because they operate in the rapidly growing digital entertainment industry, affecting how people consume media and creating new opportunities for revenue and innovation.

tvod technical

Transactional video-on-demand (TVOD) is a way for viewers to pay once to rent or buy individual films or shows rather than subscribing to a service. Think of it like renting a single movie from a kiosk or buying a digital copy — you pay per title. For investors, TVOD matters because it creates a direct, per-transaction revenue stream and can signal how much viewers value specific content, affecting earnings forecasts and pricing strategy for media companies.
