Fandango is going to get a new competitor. Three major Hollywood studios — Fox, Disney and Lionsgate — are spearheading a $50 million investment in a ticketing app for mobile devices called Atom Tickets that’s expected to debut this summer. Ticket purchasers can share their selections with friends that can then pay as individuals or as a group. Users will be able to get refreshments without waiting in line. It is also said to be considering offering discounts on tickets to showings that are less than sold out. Fandango does not offer any of those – yet.
Perhaps, if Atom Tickets wants to add an OTT service as Fandango has done with M-GO, it can consider partnering with or even acquiring NanoTech, which owns the OTT service UltraFlix that specializes in 4K content – in fact has more 4K content than any other OTT service.
