Streaming services make money through a variety of revenue streams, including subscription fees, advertising revenue, and partnerships with content providers. They also generate revenue through licensing content to other platforms and selling merchandise related to their original shows and movies.

The most common subscription model for streaming services is the monthly subscription fee, where users pay a set amount each month to access the platform’s content. Some services also offer annual subscription options at a discounted rate.

Streaming services attract and retain subscribers by offering a wide variety of content, including original shows and movies, as well as popular TV shows and films. They also use personalized recommendations and user-friendly interfaces to enhance the user experience.

Streaming services combat piracy and unauthorized sharing of content through digital rights management (DRM) technologies, legal action against infringers, and partnerships with law enforcement agencies. They also work to educate users about the importance of supporting creators by accessing content through legitimate channels.
