Reliance Jio-ZEE Partnership: How Will It Benefit Customers?
Well, this must be one of the biggest content partnerships Reliance Jio has ever made. This partnership will give access to ZEE 5’s varied content to Jio users. For the unaware, ZEE 5 content is available only via subscription, but Jio customers can enjoy it for free.
In order to further integrate this strategic content alliance, ZEE5 app, the home of extensive digital content library of ZEE, which includes the Video on Demand (VOD) network content along with the recently launched ZEE5 Originals, Movies, TV Shows, Music Videos, Lifestyle shows, Kids shows and Plays, will also be available for download through the JioCinema application. But for Live TV viewing, users have to rely on the JioTV application.
“The alliance aims to leverage ZEE’s rich and hugely popular content portfolio and nationwide reach of Reliance Jio to serve customers with exciting and innovative content solutions,” further added Reliance Jio. As of this writing, the content is yet to get integrated into Jio’ services, but both the parties said the content would be available with immediate effect.
