Over-the-top media service

Service delivering video over the internet instead of through a multi-system operator

Over-the-top media service    ▸ Facts   ▸ Comments   ▸ News   ▸ Videos   

Over-the-top (OTT) media service is a media service offered directly to viewers via the Internet. OTT bypasses cable, broadcast, and satellite television platforms—the media through which companies have traditionally acted as controllers or distributors of such content. The term is most synonymous with subscription-based video on demand (SVoD) services that offer access to film and television content, such as Netflix and Amazon Prime Video. This content may include shows and movies for which the OTT acquired rights from the content owner. Programming may also include original content produced specifically for the service.
