Ownzones Media Network has launched a new speciality SVOD channel named Best Westerns Ever.
It is being made available to viewers on Amazon video channels and via the Ownzones app, currently on Roku, iOS and Android, from today (August 15) for a nominal monthly subscription fee of $1.99.
Best Westerns Ever offers over 400 Western films and TV series and is the second of what will eventually be a full stable of niche vertical channels. The first, known as Best TV Ever and featuring vintage TV series, recently made its debut.
Commenting on the development, Doug Lee, head of programming at Ownzones, said: “In launching these niche channels, we are recognising and responding to vastly underserved audience segments by developing exciting, affordable consumer offerings that appeal to their viewing passions.
“Best Westerns Ever is a robust channel offering sure to delight Western superfans, who will no longer have to pay high prices to gain access to the titles they love. We’re delivering the best of the genre in feature films and series with one-click convenience.”
Lee adds that, as the end of the traditional TV bundle nears, viewers will be looking to subscribe and spend more in niche OTT services that are of interest to them.
