How Content Protection Helped “Dayı” Reach the Top

TV and movie viewing habits shifted to digital channels during the COVID pandemic. The competition between digital platforms and contents was driven by the rise in demand. As a result, the success of a content not only enhanced its value but also greatly contributed to the success of digital content providers/platforms. TV shows and movies that were protected during this time period became popular on multiple digital platforms, demonstrating once again that content protection maximizes the value of content and its lifespan. Let’s look at the case study of “Dayı: Bir Adamın Hikayesi” to better understand the impact of content protection and how DigiGuardians goes above and beyond.
