    Top 5 Must-haves for FAST Channels

    If your organization’s aim is to dive into the fast-growing FAST market, there are some core technology and business decisions you’ll have to make.

    What is FAST?

    FAST stands for free, ad-supported, streaming TV services, which is a rapidly growing OTT monetisation business model. FAST combines advertising and scheduled TV to provide viewers with a subscription-free streaming option. This is essentially linear television presented in a familiar lean-back program guide style, available without a subscription and funded by advertising revenue.

    In contrast to a subscription model, FAST channels are able to offer linear streaming services for free by dynamically inserting advertisements into the ad breaks.
