The news that Viacom 18 will be acquiring JioCinema in a bid to gain rights to the 2022 World Cup is sure to raise some eyebrows. In fact, this merger has already triggered a wave of complaints from users of the streaming service. While Viacom18 has managed to acquire the rights to the 2022 World Cup, there are still a number of problems that the company is facing.

Merge with JioCinema

The Competition Commission of India (CCI) has given its approval to Viacom18’s proposed merger with JioCinema. This is a major step in Reliance Industries’ plans to make its Jio brand the largest TV and digital streaming firm in the country.

Viacom18 is a leading entertainment network in the country with a range of channels across genres. These include TV shows, music videos, sports and movies. Earlier this year, it acquired the rights to broadcast IPL in digital format.

JioCinema is an over-the-top streaming service in India. It aggregates content from Zee Entertainment, Paramount Pictures, ALTBalaji and Eros Now. Since its launch in September 2016, JioCinema has offered free live streams of the World Cup.

JioCinema is also available on JioPhone. In November, TCL announced that its smart TVs would also support the app. Earlier, it was available only on the iOS App Store. However, it was later launched on Android devices.

The 2022 World Cup

Viacom18, the media partner for the 2022 FIFA World Cup, has taken a decisive step to secure copyrights for all tournament content. The company has issued News Access Rules for use of FIFA World Cup match content.

As per these rules, news broadcasters will not be permitted to interrupt regular news programmes and may only telecast up to ninety seconds of match content on a single match. All match content will be captured in HD and Ultra-high-definition and will be aired on authorised platforms.

In addition to these rules, the sports team at Viacom18 will also offer fans a range of options to watch matches, including pay-per-view and a mobile app. In addition to these features, a special augmented reality lens will be rolled out around matches for a more immersive viewing experience.

With the 2022 FIFA World Cup on its way, Viacom18 is preparing to deliver compelling content to Indian fans. The channel is set to provide pre-game analysis, game highlights, and other riveting content for the tournament. It is also planning to launch its own sports channel for the event starsworldnews.com.

Among football buffs

The launch of JioCinema’s live streaming service has triggered a ton of complaints among football buffs. There are a number of reasons why JioCinema’s streaming service has left many users disappointed. These include the aforementioned lag and poor picture quality.

While JioCinema has made live streaming of FIFA World Cup 2022 matches available for free across all service providers, there are still a number of football fans who aren’t impressed. One of the major drawbacks of using the streaming service is that it has limited bandwidth. In addition, some users are not on a cable connection, making the streaming service all the more difficult to use.

While the app has been plagued by problems, the company has managed to find the bright side by releasing a funny and witty meme on Twitter. Other than that, a few lucky football buffs have been able to watch their favourite teams kick off the most exciting tournament in years.

Complain of glitches

Many fans of the FIFA World Cup have complained of glitches with JioCinema’s live stream. The Jio Cinema app was plagued by frequent interruptions and buffering. As a result, some users began to post hilarious tweets about the network failure newstodaysworld24.com.

JioCinema is the official streaming partner of the FIFA World Cup in India. It is free to stream. However, users have complained about the poor streaming quality, inability to access data, multiple ads, and other glitches.

Before the tournament, Jio promised that the live streaming experience would be free to its subscribers. Unfortunately, that didn’t work out. Instead, many viewers in India encountered technical issues while watching the first games of the tournament newstodaysworld.com.
