Coming soon to US audiences, from the BBC and ITV, is a "Netflix-style" on
demand service called BritBox:

Another OTT streaming service seeking a monthly fee for access to a host of
programmes.

Clearly this won't feature any of the British shows that you can already
see on other platforms. But if you're a massive fan of EastEnders but
hadn't found a legal outlet for it in the US, your dreams are about to come
true.

With Acorn TV already doing a lot of this, I'm not sure how big the market
will be. If no US networks, cable nets, or streaming services have already
picked up a British show, you might imagine that it probably has limited
appeal. We shall see...
