JioHotstar Crossed 100 Million Subscribers

[Aksgr]

i dont understand their strategy . They just keep glorifying and not make utilize of resources.

• Direct subscribers grew by 33.33%
• Bundled subscribers grew by 46.15%
• Total subscribers (Direct + Bundled) grew by 41.46%

They will lose atleast 150-175 Million Bundled Subscribers By The End Of July once the Jio 3 Month Complimentary Offer Ends + they will lose a number of direct Monthly/Quarterly subscribers to Sony LIV bcoz there's no Indian Cricket on JioHotstar until October

SonyLIV seriously? Just a speculation right? Also the chart above says 130m of 205m are bundled, so you're saying all those 130m + additional 20m to 50m will leave Jiohotstar, Sure?
Are all the bundles going off after IPL?
Are we already reading 150 million minds (rather generalising 150 million opinions as per ours)?

Sony LIV has India Tour Of England (June-July), India Tour Of Bangladesh(August) & Asia Cup (September) so why will people subscribe to JioHotstar again who are using the 3 month complimentary pack?

Also the chart above says 130m of 205m are bundled, so you're saying all those 130m + additional 20m to 50m will leave Jiohotstar, Sure?

I considered April End Figures which says 190 million Bundled Subscribers will be there by then and as per that, 15-40 Millions subscribers may be retained considering Jio Fiber, Airtel XStream, etc consumers also

What makes u think people getting free JioHotstar to watch IPL will renew their subscription again when there are no Indian matches on JioHostar for next 3 months?

Same thing applies to direct consumers who will be on a monthly/Quarterly plan just to watch, they will be just JioHotstar users after that, not subscribers

I feel the negativity towards Jiohotstar is exaggerated and over sold here
let's see what actuals do we arrive at when IPL is over
