Happy Friday,
Well. An eventful week! Apple acquired Next VR, and Spotify made a big move into podcasts with an exclusive Joe Rogan deal. Tiktok nabs a former Disney exec as its new CEO, and HBO Max still hasn't reached a distribution deal with Roku or Amazon.
Pinterest and Facebook both announced new shoppable features, and home shopping is having a moment, led by QVC which is leading the way in shoppable video on streaming platforms. Its Roku app now has more than 3 million installs. 🤯
Stay safe!
