时代华纳 Buys 10% of Hulu, Will Be Part of Skinny Bundle
Making a bet on the future of streaming video, 时代华纳 bought a 10 percent stake in Hulu, both companies announced today. 时代华纳 paid $583 million in an all-cash transaction, which gives Hulu a valuation of $5.80亿年. That's three times its valuation from 2012, the 《百家乐app下载》 报告.
时代华纳 is already a streaming pioneer, as it owns HBO and launched stand-alone streaming service HBO Now last year. Today's move shows it taking a strong stance on streaming as a hedge against pay TV erosion.
During its newfront presentation 5月, Hulu confirmed that it will launch a streaming skinny bundle service, expected to go for $40 per month and debut in 2017. Part of today's news is that 时代华纳 channels CNN, 三硝基甲苯, TBS, 卡通频道, 成人游泳, 回飞棒, truTV, and 特纳 Classic Movies will be part of that service, providing both live and on-demand content.
“Our investment in Hulu underscores 时代华纳’s commitment to supporting and developing new platforms for the delivery of high-quality content and great consumer experiences to audiences around the globe,杰夫·比克斯说, chairman and CEO of 时代华纳, 在声明中.
Hulu is jointly owned by The Walt Disney Company, 21世纪福克斯, 和comcast和, 现在, 时代华纳.
