Internet streaming pioneer Netflix has rolled out its over-the-top (OTT) service in Hong Kong for as low as HK$63 a month hoping to making inroads into the city’s pay TV market.
Hong Kong is among 130 new markets – which exclude the mainland – in which the company rolled out the service yesterday (January 7, 2016), taking the total to 190 countries.
