“We are the only OTT that is streaming and on demand at the same time. We show the programming on screen and then you can look for programs at on demand. We have a social TV module where the audience can express their opinion on each one of the spaces and another of playlists that young people can use for their parties with music and videos,” explains Guardia.

The topic of having streaming, on-demand has been a huge challenge for it to operate perfectly worldwide,” adds Guardia.
