Published in The Saudi Gazette on 02 - 03 - 2020

MBC GROUP has partnered with Spotify to provide Shahid VIP subscribers with six months of Spotify Premium for free (subject to Spotify's eligibility criteria), Following the successful launch of the all-new Shahid this January.
Since launch earlier this year, MBC GROUP's revamped video on demand (VOD) service Shahid has provided a host of new features and offerings, including binge-worthy exclusive Shahid Originals; Premieres; Arabic movies fresh off the box-office; live TV channels in true HD quality; as well as international offerings courtesy of Disney, Marvel, FOX, ABC Studios and more.
The addition of Spotify, the world's most popular global audio streaming subscription service, will unlock access to millions of hours of audio to entertainment fans. With Spotify Premium, Shahid VIP subscribers will get the best Spotify has to offer, with an ad-free music listening experience that allows users to play any song or playlist; enjoy unlimited skips; and download music to listen to offline, just as Shahid VIP offers with video.
Shahid continues to witness a surge in popularity, with weekly active users now more than doubled compared to the same period last year.
