Electronic Sell Through is referred to the digital sale of film where consumers pays a one-time fee to download the film for unlimited viewing and are able to watch it without needing a internet connection for e.g. while traveling on plane.
Important to note: EST is different to an illegal download! The film can only be watched within the streaming service and not shared with others and therefore safe against piracy.
