The media streaming industry is now more competitive than ever. When it comes to finding the best TV streaming site in 2021, the process may not be quite as easy as it was only a few years ago, back when you essentially only had to choose between Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime Video. Today, there are a new major streaming service released every other month or so. Figuring out which one is going to be the best streaming site for you can be daunting and overwhelming task.
Don't worry, though. I'm here to help make this decision-making process as easy as possible. First, by having access to my in-depth reviews of all of the best free and premium streaming services, you'll never have to visit a website or sign up for a streaming service before knowing whether it sounds like something that's worth your time (and potentially your money). Beyond that, though, I'm here to give you a few pointers on how this selection process can be simplified and streamlined. Choosing a streaming site doesn't have to be a strenuous task!
Which streaming site do you want to use for 2021? There are many, but if you have the money, some of the best sites include HBO Max, Peacock, Apple TV. However, if you decide that now isn't the time for a paid subscription then there are free sites with excellent quality as well.
One of the most buzzworthy streaming sites in India right now is MX Player. If you're familiar with the site, it's because it was one of the most popular media players in India up until 2018. However, in 2021, MX Player is still one of India's most popular media player, but it's also become one of the country's most popular movie and TV streaming services.
MX Player has undergone a series of expansions in recent years which has included increasing the breadth of their services, as well as making them available to a wider audience. In 2020, MX Player will expand their reach even further by introducing their products to seven new countries: Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, Nepal, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
Netflix has long since been replaced as the primary streaming service in India by MX Player. In 2018, shortly after the streaming service launched, it quickly became India's most popular streaming service, outperforming both Netflix and HotStar, accumulating 175 million monthly users. And this was back when the streaming site only offered an ad-supported streaming model (today, you can opt into a premium, ad-free membership if you so desire).
This international expansion by MX Player is huge news. However, giant streaming services like Netflix and Hulu do not seem to face a threat by MX Player abroad at this point. However, the streaming service has reportedly reached several landmark deals with American film and TV studios so who knows what the future holds. MX Player is certainly good enough to be a thorn in the side of some of the most popular streaming enterprises on the global market.
What makes MX Player so great? Well, that's a question we'll have to answer if we want to figure out just why it's become such a popular freemium TV streaming site and app. So, let's take a closer look at all the features it offers, as well as the competition, and see if they hold up. I'm not sure yet if MX Player will be your new go-to free TV streaming site, but it's definitely worth investigating. Let's do that, shall we?
History
MX Player (formerly known as J2 Interactive) was the developer of MX Player, which became the most popular streaming service in India. The app is known for its ability to play all file types, and was developed by MX Media & Entertainment (formerly known as J2 Interactive).
The media player MX Player was acquired by India's largest digital products company, Times Internet, in 2018 for a reported $140 million. The acquisition reportedly cost Times Internet more money in October of 2019 when they raised $110.8 million from an investment by Chinese conglomerate Tencent.
As of today, MX Player boasts over 280 million active monthly users around the globe. It has a library of over 150,000 hours of content across 12 languages, and can be accessed as an iOS app, an Android app, or on a browser site on any device connected to the internet.
I wonder if the creators of MX Player envisioned all of the success they have now with their video player, which was released on July 18th, 2011.
Design
Each title has a small picture, along with basic information like release date and rating. Movies are ordered alphabetically and personalized recommendations are displayed beneath each entry.
MX Player offers an intuitive, dynamic, and smooth design. This older site offers the user experience of a well-established, veteran web presence. From the moment you visit MX Player's home page, the site makes a good first impression. The first thing I notice is an extra-large banner at the top of the page, alternating featured titles and suggestions. Below that, the site continues much in the iconic movie streamer style that was popularized by Netflix. Each title has a small picture, along with basic information like release date and rating. Movies are ordered alphabetically and personalized recommendations are displayed beneath each entry.
You'll find several slim sections, separated by category and/or genre. Each section has a side-scroll for easy browsing without back and forward clicking from page to page. Browse, for example, movies and TV shows by Must Watch Shows, MX Original Web Shows, Best Shows on MX, Blockbuster Movies, and so on.
One of the things I really like about MX's design is how customizable it is. If you prefer to browse titles in dark mode, no problem- you can do so with the click of a button (for which you will be prompted). Additionally, MX's translation functionality is very easy to use and can be accessed from an intuitive dropdown menu. You can set as many languages as you want with the click of a button.
Content and Features
MX Player offers an extremely user-friendly watchlist that allows you to add any TV series, episode, or movie to your list by merely clicking the ?add? icon in the top-right of any thumbnail. Additionally, your watchlist can be accessed without leaving whatever page of the site you happen to be on, which makes it a great resource for staying organized.
Moreover, MX Player offers one of the largest libraries of content types that I have ever seen on a free TV streaming site. Additionally, MX Player provides tons of live TV channels. So, not only is MX Player one of the best free TV and movie streaming sites on the web, but it is also one of the best free live TV streaming sites as well.
Mobile and Desktop Experience
MX Player offers a great desktop and mobile experience, interrupted with ads. However, this is a small price to pay for the amazing content that is available. iOS and Android users can enjoy the site smoothly and easily.
