✅🖥️ Variety (7/1): “ Pay TV. SVOD. AVOD. Social video. They aren’t often grouped together, but the latest data in the new Variety report “Social Video vs. SVOD: The Race to Replace TV” suggests they can be thought of as a series of historical shifts in U.S. audience viewing behavior. First, the cable business broke broadcast TV’s stranglehold in the 1980s. Thirty years later, Netflix led a field of successor streaming services that siphoned eyeballs at equally sizable scale from linear TV. And now even though streaming is hardly done in terms of its growth relative to broadcast and cable, there are signs of a paradigm shift already in motion: a third wave of fragmentation in which social video begins to eat into the market share of major streaming services. Data keeps mounting that video consumption on the big social platforms — primarily YouTube, TikTok and Instagram — is growing strongly, with users spending more time on these platforms each year. In this report, Variety provides a data-driven probe into how this viewing may impact time spent with subscription video.” ⬇️ #streamingtv #ctv #ott #upfronts #socialmedia #tv3 #cordcutting #genz https://lnkd.in/eUbfGa_D
