Hasbro Studios Signs An Agreement With Playster - G.I.Joe Streaming Content - HissTank.com
Hasbro Studios has signed an agreement with Playster Platform to bring media content to mobile devices. The agreement includes the Transformers animated series, Kaijudo, Clue and a variety of G.I. Joe titles. “Making Playster a family-friendly platform that offers great content for every single member of the family has always been one of our top priorities,” said Philip Keezer, the CEO of Playster. “Working with Hasbro Studios will help ensure that our library is suitable for even the youngest entertainment buffs.” Canada based Playster is set to launch in US very soon and even offers a free Tablet and a Headphone to their subscribers: “Playster, the all-inclusive, global media and entertainment platform, announced today the U.S. launch of its unlimited platform of content across all forms of entertainment, including books, audio books, video games, music, movies and TV shows. Playster will offer a free tablet and premium headphones for all who subscribe for one year to the unlimited entertainment platform, the first subscriber on-demand platform to do so.” |

So it hasn't even launched in the US ? Good luck competing against Netflix, Hulu & Amazon.
Also, it looks like the prices are $4/month for movies, $5/month for games, $10/month for music and $10/month for books. OR all together for $25/mo. And it seems there are no TV shows. Don't think this is going to work. |

Don't think this is going to work. But I could see Hasbro being in a Catch-22. They want to be a "multimedia company" but by announcing that they make a lot of the entertainment bodies they might otherwise partner with into competitors rather than prospective partners. Plus outside of Transformers and MLP their brands aren't exactly on fire right now so it's questionable if the big streaming services even care to pay the licensing fees to stream it. But I don't see this as being likely to cut too much into the big streaming services' market share. |

I've reworked my post several times to try and not sound too negative. I have no interest in adding more streaming services, so I guess I'm not the market for this. Good luck to them.
