What is yidio
Overview
Yidio aims to solve the problem of multiple streaming providers offering different content, by gathering all the providers and content onto one platform. Yidio consolidates streaming video from providers such as Netflix, Hulu, iTunes, Crackle, Crunchyroll, and others. Yidio’s home screen shows new releases and recently aired television programs. The interface organizes movies and television programs by genre or source, shows program descriptions and provides ratings from Rotten Tomatoes. Yidio's platform aggregates over one million TV shows and movies.
