Black Speech Media Group, a multimedia entertainment
company, in conjunction with Autonomous Entertainment, a New York-based media
marketing and distribution boutique, have brought Nigerian films to the digital
distribution space by launching Nollywood movies on two major digital
platforms, Amazon and iTunes.
With more than 50,000 Nollywood titles on the Black Speech
Media Group platform, the two companies proposed a plan that would build a
landing page and digital channel on most of the major digital platforms, such
as iTunes, Netflix, Amazon Prime and Hulu. The first batch of titles are
available on Amazon Prime and iTunes and have already gone live in six
territories: USA, Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland, New Zealand and Australia.
