  • The Streaming Television Industry: Mature Or Still Growing?
    The Streaming Television Industry: Mature or Still Growing? Johannes H. Snyman Metropolitan State University of Denver Debora J. Gilliard Metropolitan State University of Denver This paper is about the streaming television industry. It begins by defining the industry and provides a brief history of the television industry in general, from the first transatlantic television signal in 1928 to 2018. From that point, it emphasizes the streaming television industry, which started in 2007, when Netflix first streamed movies over the internet. The main section of the paper focuses on Michael Porter’s theory of the industry life cycle to determine the current stage of the industry. The research question is developed, proposing that the industry is in the growth phase. Then, the number of paid subscribers of the top streaming providers in 2018 is used to address the research question. The results indicate that the industry is in the growth phase. The final section provides an outlook for the industry’s future. Keywords: Streaming TV Industry, OTT TV, Growth Industry INTRODUCTION The television industry is rapidly changing, moving toward “over-the-top”, or streaming, television. Cord cutting is occurring as millennials and traditional viewers discontinue and unbundle their television, internet, and landline telephone services (Snyman & Gilliard, 2018). Millennials are keeping their monthly expenses down by subscribing to streaming services that provide the content they are interested in watching, and binge-watching of serial television shows is the new norm (Prastien, 2019). “Over-the-top” (OTT) television and “online video distribution” (OVD) are terms that originally referred to the streaming television services provided by Netflix, Hulu and Amazon.

  • Streaming Television Content an Alternative Way to Offer Video Services by Ken Pyle, Viodi, LLC
    Streaming Television Content An Alternative Way to Offer Video Services By Ken Pyle, Viodi, LLC Last month, we reviewed the Prismiq MediaPlayer, a device that is currently available to consumers wishing to browse the Internet, post email and view MPEG and other media files on their television sets. This set-top box and its associated software could be the basis for a new approach to telco-delivered video. This article will delve into some possible ways a telco could exploit “Streaming Television” to provide a robust video service offering quickly and with much lower upfront cost than traditional approaches. What is streaming television content and how is it different than content delivered via traditional television distribution means described in the previous section? Streaming Television Content, for the purposes of this article, is defined as: content that is delivered via the Internet to provide a television-like experience to PCs, Televisions (via set-tops) or other Internet-enabled appliances. This approach offers even the smallest independent telephone companies with the potential to quickly and cost-effectively offer video services. The upfront, fixed costs are minimized with this method, as the marginal costs are mostly associated with consumer premise devices. Unlike the traditional distribution of content to televisions, this approach: • Reduces the costs associated with a traditional headend • May not require regulatory authority (at least for the content portion) • Does not necessarily involve retransmission of local broadcasters or national cable programming networks This approach to content delivery could appeal to those telcos too small to justify the expense of a switched digital headend, as well as provide a low-risk, low-cost, entry into video services for those larger telcos that have a long-term plan to offer content via a more traditional distribution system.

  • Introduction: Streaming and the Re-Education of the Audience
    . Volume 16, Issue 2 November 2019 Introduction: Streaming and the re-education of the audience Barbara Klinger, Indiana University, US In May 1999, in an early digital experiment with feature-length films, Edward Vilga’s low- budget neo-noir Dead Broke premiered simultaneously at New York’s Tribeca Film Center via digital file and on Ifilm.net, an early online film distributor, for users equipped with Windows Media Player. Unfortunately, all did not go as planned. Critics complained about glitches in the theatrical presentation that included the then familiar herky-jerky images and muddy soundtracks that ensued from uneven delivery of the compressed data involved in transmitting large data files. Meanwhile, many logging on to Ifilm.net to watch the movie were similarly vexed – either unable to stream the film or subjected to other technical difficulties resulting in a heavily pixelated picture. One month later and with more success at least on one of these platforms, George Lucas arranged for the digital projection of Star Wars: Episode 1 – The Phantom Menace in a handful of specially-equipped theaters and then went on to shoot Star Wars: Episode 2 – Attack of the Clones (2002) using high- definition digital cinematography. Uncertain commentators asked whether such pioneering experiments might signal the dawn of the digital era in cinema production, distribution and exhibition (Nickell 1999). Twenty years later, we know that the answer to this particular question is a resounding yes. More broadly speaking, traditional media industries like music, television and film have each had their own complicated history with respect to the emergence and increasingly pervasive dominance of digital technology.

  • Concurrency in Auditory Displays for Connected Television
    Concurrency in auditory displays for connected television Alistair Francis Hinde Doctor of Philosophy University of York Electronics September 2016 Abstract Many television experiences depend on users being both willing and able to visually attend to screen-based information. Auditory displays offer an alternative method for presenting this information and could benefit all users. This thesis explores how this may be achieved through the design and evaluation of auditory displays involving varying degrees of concurrency for two television use cases: menu navigation and presenting related content alongside a television show. The first study, on the navigation of auditory menus, looked at onset asynchrony and word length in the presentation of spoken menus. The effects of these on task duration, accuracy and workload were considered. Onset asynchrony and word length both caused significant effects on task duration and accuracy, while workload was only affected by onset asynchrony. An optimum asynchrony was identified, which was the same for both long and short words, but better performance was obtained with the shorter words that no longer overlapped. The second experiment investigated how disruption, workload, and preference are affected when presenting additional content accompanying a television programme. The content took the form of sound from different spatial locations or as text on a smartphone and the programme's soundtrack was either modified or left unaltered. Leaving the soundtrack unaltered or muting it negatively impacted user experience. Removing the speech from the television programme and presenting the secondary content as sound from a smartphone was the best auditory approach. This was found to compare well with the textual presentation, resulting in less visual disruption and imposing a similar workload.
