It's chasing roughly 37 million Indians living abroad, and their taste for content from back home.\nBut frustrated by geolocked content and a lack of accessibility for regional content, many of those viewers have turned to less legal options. One of them is an unlicensed box that can cost as little $10 a month, and come with 5000 channels and access to the libraries of major OTT players.\nWe spoke to eight households about what they watch, why streaming rights and shared logins make things complicated, what the box offers that apps don't, and if what JioHotstar is offering instead can match up to it.\nTune in.\nDaybreak is produced from the newsroom of The Ken, India’s first subscriber-only business news platform.
