SVOD platforms: gargantuan catalogs

The launch of the SVOD offer of Netflix has changed the way on consumes series and films. We are no longer expecting the broadcast of the episodes on television months later in other territories, nor the physical release of these programs. We have also seen “binge watching” become more democratic, even if certain platforms, such as HBO Max, diffuse in dribs and drabs to generate expectation. We also have access to a vast catalog of films, series, cartoons and documentaries for a sum that remains modest despite everything. The phenomenon has spread around the world, and Netflix has seen many competitors follow suit.

HBO Max, OCS, Canal+, Disney+, Paramount+ and the late Salto are just a few of the examples, to which Crunchyroll, ADN or Wakanim have little to add for anime.
