With the development in technology, production companies, and content authors are facing a strange problem of “compelling revenue model” for their work. In response to the stimuli, the consumers are struggling with VOD services that don't satisfy their demand for audiovisual content, so they seek that content on illegal, unlicensed networks which pose harmful threats and hacking risks.
As the internet based streaming services (also called "OTT" – short for "Over the top", or “VOD” for Video on Demand) get on fire, the way videos were produces has also radically changed. Most streaming services will provide customers with the chance to select when and where to watch, and what to watch. This shift from the traditional linear programming attribute of what was referred to as "TV”, has given rise to whole new and diverse world. Besides, more and more movies, TV shows and live events are being watched on tablets, cell phones, computers and smart TV ́s, radically transforming the whole audiovisual industry.


Flixxo:

Flixxo is an open network, a friendly and intuitive platform, a BitTorrent client, a token and a wallet. Flixxo has developed a P2P network where authors can distribute and monetize their own content. They incentivize the distribution of their media and remove excess intermediate parties by sharing their revenues with the “seeders” – a term coined in the torrents environment that refers to those who have downloaded content, keep it in their computer and share it. Flixxo allows true end users to pay a fair price for watching licensed content in a friendly and safe environment.
Flixxo has pledged to educate its community by teaching it that in this new internet era value can be held and transferred online without middlemen, a value that can be received back by participating in a community, by contributing, and by being rewarded for every single social interaction.
Flixxo has given the audiovisual industry a much needed solution by creating a distributed and incentivized peer-to-peer network where every user turns itself into a distributor of content. Flixxo, by providing a decentralized payment channel gets rid of the middle-men and the infrastructure costs, as it builds up a platform and a community where every author is allowed to upload content and set the rules of the distribution by developing new effective business models for his/her content. Also, with the help of Flixxo, consumers may reach the content they were looking for in a legal manner, paying a fair price or even nothing if they are socially engaged with the community.


Why Flixxo?

Flixxo has presented p2p payments in a complete new light. They have we developed a decentralized way of settling value on a blockchain. They have developed methods to set rules on that value by implementing smart contracts. Hence,their tools to connect peer-to-peer payments to peer-to-peer content distribution are worthy of praise. Flixxo has made use of both the technologies to make a social benefit, profitable to all.

Flixxo is based on the ability to play videos or buy users’ attention on advertisement. Also, Flixxo is freely tradeable and transferred without involving middlemen, paying only a very marginal fee in the form of gas for the Blockchain that runs the basic token contract.
In the coming decade, hundreds of authors will switch to Flixxo for distributing and monetizing their content. It plans to implement new business models that facilitate both content creators and advertisers/affiliates. The company will soon outshine other illegal platforms by revolutionizing the audiovisual industry, as it aims at providing customers with the best of services.
