Iraq-based streaming platform 1001 has entered into an exclusive partnership with Wide.net to significantly enhance its premium content offerings across the country. This collaboration will add over 8,000 hours of high-quality Arabic programming to 1001’s catalog, enriching the viewing experience for audiences nationwide.
The partnership aligns with 1001’s mission to provide culturally relevant, high-caliber entertainment while promoting legal streaming practices and supporting the growth of the regional creative industry. By expanding its content lineup, 1001 strengthens its position as a leading platform for licensed Arabic digital media in Iraq.
Iraq is emerging as a growing hub for Arabic digital media, fueled by widespread mobile penetration, improved internet infrastructure, and evolving viewer preferences. The country is gradually shifting away from piracy towards legitimate digital content consumption, with platforms like 1001 playing a pivotal role in driving this transition by offering accessible, licensed entertainment tailored to local tastes.
Since its inception in 2016, Wide.net has established itself as a premier subscription-based streaming service in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region, delivering popular Khaliji and Arabic films, series, and original productions to audiences globally. This collaboration brings Wide.net’s rich content expertise to Iraqi viewers through 1001’s platform.
