Current theatrical window: 30-45 days exclusive before PVOD (Premium Electronic. Pay-2 window: after theatrical and before SVOD (HBO, Netflix, Amazon, Disney+). SVOD window: 6-12 months after theatrical for Netflix, Amazon Prime; shorter (45-90 days) for Disney+ (Disney releases), and HBO Max (Warner Bros). PVOD Rental pricing: typically $20for48-hourrentalduringpay-1window,droppingto$6 rental during pay-2.
