    Tech Talk: Ep13 - Are Streaming services killing the Cinema business?

    In this episode, we look into how giant streaming services like Netflix, Showmax are directly affecting cinema businesses like Ster-kinekor and Nu Metro.  More and more people are moving towards the option of streaming movies and shows from their own comfort. This means we could see more people cutting costs and time from going in and out of cinemas. Ster-kinekor recently launched their pay per month service which allows movie lovers to subscribe to unlimited movies for a certain fee.   While we see both industries evolving, we cannot disregard the high rise and growth of streaming services which most of them end up getting the same movies we see in cinemas a month later.

    Huawei, the world’s second-biggest smartphone manufacturer based in China, has been suspended to do business with companies like Google, Intel, Broadcom, Xilinx and Qualcomm. The news follows after U.S. Commerce Department added Huawei to its Entity List – meaning most of the companies mentioned above will need government approval to do any sort of business with Huawei.

It does not ends there, as this could open the door to retaliation against U.S. brands from hotels to sportswear e.g Nike, Apple and more.
