Editor’s note: This article was first published in April 2012 as news of Youzee’s public launch. The launch offers of 10 free hours and a 30-day trial, and the monthly price of 6.99 euros, applied at that time.
As of today, Spain has its own version of Netflix. Youzee, like Netflix, offers streaming films, on-demand TV and rentals. The company has agreements with several distributors, including BBC, Sony, Disney, Fox International Channels, TVE, Telemundo and a few more.
Youzee has been in beta for a few months, but from today it is open to everyone. As a launch offer, Youzee is giving new users 10 hours of free viewing from its film catalog, with no need to provide any payment details (credit card or similar). There is another option for new users that offers 30 days free in exchange for your payment details, which means committing to subscribe to the service once the trial period ends.
Youzee’s subscription service would cost 6.99 euros a month (a flat rate to watch as much as the user likes).
Youzee was founded by two Spaniards, Carlos Cruz and Fernando Évole. The company is headquartered in Madrid, and its founders hope to take their business model to other European countries.
