How MUBI is built for TV
MUBI ships across the major TV platforms with a deliberately small, curated catalog. It shows that platform reach is a distribution decision independent of catalog size.
A lean catalog does not mean a lean engineering problem: the app still has to certify and perform on every store.
Building something like MUBI?
- Platform reach is about distribution, not catalog size. Small services still go wide.
- A focused UI is an asset on TV; fewer paths means easier remote navigation.
- You still pay the full per-platform certification and testing cost regardless of catalog.
