With SVOD, there is far greater freedom to opt out, as consumers aren\u2019t tied into a long-term contract.\u00a0This offers greater flexibility to users, and providers of SVOD are continually challenged with retaining consumers, by providing exclusive new content, aggressive pricing schemes \u2013 and probably both.<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What are S Buckets and how to configure in SetupOTT?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In SetupOTT, you can create S-buckets and configure the buckets to categories. The channels or resources which have configured S-bucket them are available under this category. So after that, you can assign the S-Buckets to products. So the users will get the channel or resources in the S-bucket if purchase the product.<br>Suppose I have created an S-bucket &#8220;S1&#8221; and configured the category &#8220;Sports&#8221; under SetupOTT Live TV. We have 3 types of products available &#8220;Trial&#8221;, &#8220;Bronze&#8221; and &#8220;Gold&#8221;. I have assigned the S-Bucket &#8220;S1&#8221; to the product &#8220;Trial&#8221; and &#8220;Gold&#8221;. I have added a Channel &#8220;Cricket Live&#8221; to the &#8220;Sports&#8221; category and selected S-Bucket as &#8220;S1&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this scenario, If a user purchases a &#8220;Trial&#8221; or &#8220;Gold&#8221; product, He can watch the channel &#8220;Cricket Live&#8221;.
