Did you know that 71% of the internet users in the US own an OTT device? Or that 64% have an active OTT subscription? That rounds to about 182 million people in the US alone. Netflix has 152 million subscribers spread throughout hundreds of countries around the world. And during the lockdown period they got 16 million new subscribers.
According to a Nielsen report, United States adults are watching five hours of television per day on average. Many predict that Video on Demand will surpass traditional TV in the next five years, both in terms of hours and marketing dollars.
These are massive numbers. As audiences continue to watch TV on a massive scale, the challenge for video streaming businesses is to not only create a meaningful and engaging experience for audiences. It is also to captivate them everywhere, wherever they are.
According to a survey, online video consumption has gone up by 46% during the lockdown period. Covid-19 has further accelerated the growth of the already thriving video streaming business. Netflix alone has gained over 16 million subscribers during the lockdown period.
While VOD (Video on Demand) was already beginning to overtake traditional methods like cable, this period has bumped that pace up tremendously.
According to a Vox media report, most of the signups for Netflix happen via desktop and mobile while 70% of the actual viewing happens on the big TV screen. Which essentially indicates that having anomnichannel approach is an important factor in your video monetization strategy.
