2020 is officially in the books, but some of the most unexpected elements of the year are continuing to make headlines. Among those, surprisingly, is Quibi, the streaming service that launched in April of last year and quickly befuddled the general public in the process. Quibi - short for “Quick Bites” - offered an array of short-form content for fans to watch on their mobile phones, an idea that wasn’t able to reach its full potential amid the stay-at-home orders of the COVID-19 pandemic. Now that the app has confirmed that it would be shutting down, the company has shifted focus to finding a new home for its various pieces of content – and it looks like it might have found a buyer. According to a new report from The Wall Street Journal, Quibi is in “advanced talks” to sell its catalog of original content to Roku, which is best known for its online streaming and television platform.
