Australia OTT Platform Market Trends:

Proliferation of Hybrid Monetization Models

Australia's OTT platform market is undergoing a significant transformation, with a shift towards hybrid monetization models that combine Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD), Advertising Video on Demand (AVOD), and Free Ad-supported Streaming TV (FAST) services. This evolution is driven by changing consumer preferences and the need for platforms to diversify their revenue streams. Netflix and Disney+ are among the key players. Both platforms have introduced ad-supported tiers to attract cost-conscious viewers while maintaining premium subscription offerings for exclusive content. Disney+ launched its ad-supported plan in late 2023, while Netflix rolled out its ad-tiered subscription in the same year. These moves reflect a broader industry trend toward hybrid models, aiming to expand reach and maximize revenue. The adoption of these models by both local and international platforms is reshaping the Australian OTT landscape, fostering a more inclusive and sustainable streaming ecosystem.

Strategic Consolidations and Content Localization

The Australian OTT market is undergoing significant strategic shifts, with consolidations and an increased focus on content localization as key players adapt to changing consumer demands and competitive pressures. A notable move in this direction is News Corp’s sale of its Australian cable TV unit, Foxtel, to British sports network DAZN for AUD 3.4 billion ($2 billion), including debt. This sale reflects the ongoing industry pivot toward streaming platforms, driven by evolving viewer preferences and the high costs of traditional broadcasting. DAZN’s acquisition aims to leverage Foxtel’s established market presence to strengthen its sports broadcasting offerings in Australia. In parallel, the emphasis on content localization is intensifying. Although investment in Australian feature films and television dramas saw a nearly 30% decline in the 2023-24 financial year, streaming platforms continue to invest in local content. Stan, a leading Australian streaming service, remains at the forefront, producing Australian-specific content to meet local audience tastes. These strategic initiatives highlight the industry's efforts to enhance operational efficiency and boost viewer engagement in the Australian OTT market.
