Together, the companies will work in tandem to deliver unrivaled TV content to viewers with a global telco partner and one of the largest device manufacturers in the world providing the network of viewers from its devices; Quickflix providing the movie content; Mojo serving as the delivery engine and protection to standardize, protect, and deliver the content; and JAXtv providing the TV content. Content on the JAXtv platform is also being provided by a 1,000-hour deal with Hoplite Entertainment to both produce and procure original programming.
“Hoplite is excited to be a part of the next generation of SVOD platforms and delivering content that brings content developers and viewers together,” said Jon Smith, CEO of Hoplite Entertainment. “Over the last few years, Hoplite has developed a massive catalogue of domestic and international productions and has been looking for the right platform to partner with to deliver it to viewers. JAXtv is the platform to deliver the unique content viewers crave.”
