What you need to know about Tubi
The service has a lot of content, but be prepared for plenty of ads
Tubi is a fast-growing streaming platform that is completely free; acquired by FOX Corporation in 2022 for over 440 million dollars. The content and platform has steadily grown in popularity. Tubi brandishes an impressive catalog of 50,000 movies and TV shows and let’s not forget about over 200 live TV channels all accessible with just a click.
In 2021, Tubi began offering original films and series alongside popular content from other networks. Following the FOX purchase, Tubi was able to gain their extensive library of content and add even more to watch for free. The only downfall of this free platform is you’ll typically watch a 20-second ad before your show starts and then sit through a 40-second commercial about halfway through. This is the price you must pay for free viewership.
