Regional Variants

Some logic is applied to allow for regional streaming service lists to be available to users depending on where they are, as detailed below:

Region Key Description
any besides us amazon, disney, netflix These collections will use regional variant lists to ensure the lists populate with what is available in the region specified
any besides uk all4, britbox, hayu, now These collections will not be created if the region is not uk as these streaming services are UK-focused
any besides ca crave These collections will not be created if the region is not ca as these streaming services are Canada-focused
ca max, showtime These collections will not be created if the region is ca as these streaming services are part of the Crave streaming service in Canada
