WeTV app lacks direct SVIP purchase option for previews and extras: SKIP, 35/100 | Ideas Lab

A tool to aggregate fragmented streaming content back into one app, solving a symptom, not a business.

The pain

WeTV users bounce between the app and external websites to find bonus episodes, previews, and premium features. This friction is real but narrow, it affects WeTV specifically and similar platforms with poor content organization.

The gap

The gap exists because WeTV (owned by Tencent) deliberately fragments content across properties for business reasons: driving traffic to their main site, promoting SVIP upgrades, and controlling user data flows. This isn't a technical oversight, it's intentional product design.

Build angle

You could build a content aggregator that scrapes and surfaces WeTV extras in one place. But you'd immediately hit: (1) terms of service violations, (2) licensing issues around redistributing content, (3) Tencent's legal resources, and (4) the fact that fixing this requires Tencent's cooperation, not a third-party tool.

Strengths

The frustration is genuine and affects real users
The problem is specific enough to understand clearly
Aggregation tools have worked in other fragmented markets

Risks

You cannot legally redistribute or re-host streaming content without explicit licensing
Tencent will block scraping and pursue legal action against aggregators
The real solution requires platform cooperation, which removes your business model
Market is limited to WeTV users in specific regions; not global
Even if you solve it, Tencent can patch the integration in weeks
No revenue model that doesn't violate content agreements
This is a feature request, not a standalone business

Lack of comprehensive subscription platform for Pokémon TCG guides

TCG players love reading guides but hate using Metafy; they desire a Sixprizes-style website offering $20-30/month access to all articles plus strong community interaction.
