Innovation in entertainment: Airtime expands to Thailand
Absolute NT brings a new wave of content to Thailand
In an exciting move set to transform the entertainment landscape in Thailand, Absolute NT has been entrusted with the distribution of the cloud-based content aggregator, Airtime. This innovative service will be a game-changer for the hospitality and healthcare industries, offering in-room premium entertainment without the need for any physical hardware or Property Management System (PMS) licenses.
Connecting with leading tech giants
Airtime leverages partnerships with major smart TV manufacturers such as Sony, Samsung, LG, and Philips to enhance the content streaming experience. By accessing films and TV shows from leading Hollywood studios including Paramount, Disney, Fox, Marvel, Dreamworks, and Universal Studios, Airtime ensures a rich repository of content. Additionally, news providers like NHK-World, Bloomberg, and Euronews are integrated, catering to a diverse audience with varied preferences.
A global presence with a local focus
Originally launched in the UK in 2016 by Techlive International, Airtime has quickly expanded its footprints to over 30 countries. This extensive reach underscores its reliability and popularity in delivering high-quality content. With its introduction to the Thai market, Airtime continues its trajectory of growth, promising to enhance content accessibility and viewer satisfaction.
Premier content, premier experiences
Frank Rittman, the founding director of Absolute NT, highlights, “Airtime provides the finest award-winning content to its customers, often available while titles are still in their theatrical runs, including eight of the last year’s top ten box office earners.” This service not only offers blockbuster hits but also a rich mix of international news and lifestyle & wellness content from the Global Fashion Channel and MyZen. Its launch in Thailand is expected to elevate the level of customer satisfaction for service operators across the nation.
Leading the change: Absolute NT’s expertise
Absolute NT is well-established in the region, renowned for its expertise in non-theatrical exhibition services. Their proficiency allows for the legal distribution of film and TV titles to commercial venues beyond traditional cinemas, further solidifying their role as a vanguard in the entertainment sector.
Flexibility and ease of access
One of Airtime’s standout features is its flexibility. The service can operate with internet speeds ranging from as low as 1.2 Mbps to 7.2 Mbps for high-definition content. This adaptability ensures a broad range of users can benefit, regardless of their internet infrastructure. Pay-per-view payments are streamlined, allowing for transactions via phone by simply scanning an onscreen QR code. Additionally, the system supports multiple languages for dubbed and subtitled content, currently available in 14 languages, enhancing its accessibility and user-friendliness.
Tim Worrall, CEO of Techlive International, expresses confidence in this innovation, stating, “We are confident that the system will be recognized in Thailand as an added value by service operators in this exciting and growing market.”
Pioneering a new entertainment era
With the entry of Airtime in Thailand through Absolute NT, the entertainment sector is poised for significant growth. This partnership not only brings world-class content closer to Thai audiences but also sets a new benchmark for digital entertainment services. The synergy between cutting-edge technology and top-tier content is set to redefine viewer experiences, making high-quality entertainment more accessible and enjoyable.
