In a research note musing, “there’s something happening here,”Nomura analyst Michael Nathanson provided some color about a well known yet nettlesome industry seachange that’s highlighted each year by all the gadgets on display at CES: the rapid decline of live TV viewership. “Thanks to either the continued impact of the DVR, shifts in the Nielsen sample, the NBA strike or slight changes in consumption patterns, live primetime TV viewership declined almost -5% [in 4Q]–now 13 straight quarters of live declines,” said Nathanson. Duh, you say? Such utterers likely wouldn’t be moved by Nathanson’s claim that cable’s live ratings (-5%) fell more than broadcast’s (-3%) in the quarter either—a slew of cable originals count more than 40% time-shifted viewership—but that hasn’t happened in 5 quarters and perhaps more importantly, broadcast C3 viewing rose 0.3% while cable’s dipped 1.1%.
