Vodacom video-on-demand plans

Vodacom says it aims to launch a video-on-demand (VOD) service in South Africa in 2015, with its strategy closely aligned to its parent company, Vodafone.

Just wondering how they plan on making this work. You'll need a lot of mobile data (obviously) but at current prices :erm:

Unless they make the data for this specific service dirt cheap of course.

And the OOB shark is going to cause tragedy with this one. Unless Jannie finally concedes to the value proposition I raised in January.

I highly doubt that Vodacom would zero rate VOD, although this is the only way I can work. I doubt that the network will support this though.

With LTE it is possible but OOB shark

Nothing is stopping you from making a banner or actually doing something against the oob...

What a joke. This will be unaffordable with OOB

That's why I doubt regular data charges will be used. Maybe a service subscription/free data deal.
