Description
Versant, a company soon to separate from NBCUniversal, is expanding into the streaming world with a new service for MS NOW and turning Fandango into a free, ad-supported platform. They aim to generate $6.6 billion in revenue by 2025, half from traditional pay TV and half from digital ventures.
