Originally owned by Mediatama Anugrah Citra, now owned by Surya Citra Media, both are subsidiaries of Emtek.[1] The service's content consists of free-to-air and pay TV channels, live streaming events, films and series, including Vidio original programs.[2] In 2022, Vidio was the largest video on demand service provider in Indonesia, beating Netflix, Disney+ Hotstar, and Amazon Prime Video.[3]

History

Vidio was founded on 15 October 2014 and aimed to be the YouTube for Indonesians.[4] Originally, Vidio's content was dominated by user-generated content and TV content from Emtek's media outlets. In 2015, Vidio had about 3,000 to 4,000 monthly active users.[5][6]

Emtek's total investment in Vidio as of March 2019 reached IDR 240 billion. Surya Citra Media planned to take over Vidio at a price of IDR 115 billion.[7] After producing 3 original series in 2019, Vidio began to release more original series on Vidio Premier, their premium subscription service, dubbed as "Vidio Originals" in 2020. In the same year, Vidio had 40 million active users.[8]

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the platform saw 225% growth and recorded more than 5 million downloads in App Store and Play Store.[9][10]

On 7 November 2021, MNC noticed the removal of all MNC's Television channels to Vidio under alleged an carriage dispute when MNC Vision Networks owned Vision+ for RCTI, MNCTV, GTV and iNews.[11]

Vidio is exclusive digital broadcaster of Premier League from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026 season.[12] Most of the big matches were streamed exclusively on the platform with its sister network SCTV and Moji aired the remainders.

After Fox Sports Asia ceased operation in October 2021, Emtek acquired the rights to broadcast Formula One for the remainder of 2021 and 2022 season.[13] The races were broadcast in Champions TV 4 (which included in Vidio's premium subscription)[14] and FTA terrestrial channel Moji.

Vidio was also the official broadcaster of 2022 FIFA World Cup.
