[2] This new platform, created by the Argentina national film authority (INCAA) with technological support form ARSAT, aimed to be a new display window for the Argentine cinema industry, planning on offering first a free period, and then launching as a subscription platform, which never came to an end.

[5] INCAA was in charge of curating audiovisual content, managing exhibition rights, and the platform design.

On the other hand, the state-owned telco ARSAT managed the technological aspects of the project: content storage and transmission.

[3] It was also meant as a new income source of royalties for several copyright collectives in Argentina: Directores Argentinos Cinematográficos (Film director), SAGAI (Sociedad Argentina de Gestión de Actores e Intérpretes; actors), SADAIC (musicians), Argentores (screenwriters).

[3] In March 2017, as a new government had taken office, it was decided that the service would be relaunched as Cine.ar Play along a rebrand of its sister channel INCAA TV, which was renamed to Cine.ar TV and relaunched as a high-definition channel.
