Media Nations 2019
Media nations: UK 2019 Published 7 August 2019 Overview This is Ofcom’s second annual Media Nations report. It reviews key trends in the television and online video sectors as well as the radio and other audio sectors. Accompanying this narrative report is an interactive report which includes an extensive range of data. There are also separate reports for Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The Media Nations report is a reference publication for industry, policy makers, academics and consumers. This year’s publication is particularly important as it provides evidence to inform discussions around the future of public service broadcasting, supporting the nationwide forum which Ofcom launched in July 2019: Small Screen: Big Debate. We publish this report to support our regulatory goal to research markets and to remain at the forefront of technological understanding. It addresses the requirement to undertake and make public our consumer research (as set out in Sections 14 and 15 of the Communications Act 2003). It also meets the requirements on Ofcom under Section 358 of the Communications Act 2003 to publish an annual factual and statistical report on the TV and radio sector. This year we have structured the findings into four chapters. • The total video chapter looks at trends across all types of video including traditional broadcast TV, video-on-demand services and online video. • In the second chapter, we take a deeper look at public service broadcasting and some wider aspects of broadcast TV. • The third chapter is about online video. This is where we examine in greater depth subscription video on demand and YouTube.

Media Nations 2020 UK Report
Media Nations 2020 UK report Published 5 August 2020 Contents Section Overview 3 1. Covid-19 media trends: consumer behaviour 6 2. Covid-19 media trends: industry impact and response 44 3. Production trends 78 4. Advertising trends 90 2 Media Nations 2020 Overview This is Ofcom’s third annual Media Nations, a research report for industry, policy makers, academics and consumers. It reviews key trends in the TV and online video sectors, as well as radio and other audio sectors. Accompanying this report is an interactive report that includes an extensive range of data. There are also separate reports for Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. This year’s publication comes during a particularly eventful and challenging period for the UK media industry. The Covid-19 pandemic and the ensuing lockdown period has changed consumer behaviour significantly and caused disruption across broadcasting, production, advertising and other related sectors. Our report focuses in large part on these recent developments and their implications for the future. It sets them against the backdrop of longer-term trends, as laid out in our five-year review of public service broadcasting (PSB) published in February, part of our Small Screen: Big Debate review of public service media. Media Nations provides further evidence to inform this, as well as assessing the broader industry landscape. We have therefore dedicated two chapters of this report to analysis of Covid-19 media trends, and two chapters to wider market dynamics in key areas that are shaping the industry: • The consumer behaviour chapter examines the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on media consumption trends across television and online video, and radio and online audio.

A Report on Market Structure, Dynamics and Developments in Irish Media
Broadcasting Authority of Ireland A report on market structure, dynamics and developments in Irish media Supplied in support of the BAI’s consultation on its Broadcasting Services Strategy December 2017 Mediatique Limited 65 Chandos Place London WC2N 4HG United Kingdom www.mediatique.co.uk BAI – Market structure, dynamics and developments Executive summary Introduction ° The Broadcasting Authority of Ireland (‘BAI’) is the regulator of the Irish broadcasting market. ° Among other statutory duties under the Broadcasting Act (2009), the BAI is required to prepare a Broadcasting Services Strategy (‘BSS’) covering the provision of broadcasting services in Ireland. The BAI's current BSS was agreed in 2011. The new BSS will reflect the current Strategy Statement in force (2017-19) covering the BAI’s key objectives around plurality, diversity, support for indigenous content and promotion of content in the Irish language. ° Mediatique was commissioned to provide a detailed overview of current and future developments in the Irish broadcasting landscape, and to consider the likely trajectory over the next five years. This work is aimed at informing the new BSS and, in particular, helping the BAI define its approach to regulation in the light of market dynamics over time. ° Our brief included consideration of consumer behaviour, platform and distribution developments, changes in technology and evolving business models associated with broadcasting. ° We were asked specifically to analyse the sustainability of revenues that underpin expenditure on audio and visual content, particularly Irish content, and to consider whether the current regulatory framework needs to evolve in line with market dynamics. ° Within our wider work, the BAI has asked for analysis on two specific topics – prospects for the launch of commercial digital terrestrial multiplexes carrying TV channels to supplement those already available on Saorview; and whether the BAI, working with industry and Government, should seek to promote digital audio broadcasting (‘DAB’).

The UK Speech Radio Sector
Assessing the impact of the BBC’s public service activities Assessing the impact of proposed changes to the BBC’s public service activities Distribution of BBC public services Wireless Group response to Ofcom’s consultations – February 2017 Executive summary 1. This submission constitutes Wireless Group’s response to three of the consultations published by Ofcom as it prepares to assume its new duties in relation to regulation of the BBC. These are: Assessing the impact of the BBC’s public service activities; Assessing the impact of proposed changes to the BBC’s public service activities; and Distribution of BBC public services. 2. Our submission is framed in the context of the BBC’s dominance of the speech radio sector – a sector in which it is estimated to enjoy in excess of 80% of funding, and in which it enjoys an 84% share of sectoral listening. Given the heightened risk of negative impacts associated with the BBC’s dominant market position, it is important that speech radio activities are subject to proper external scrutiny and regulatory enforcement. 3. Wireless Group welcomes the appointment of Ofcom to regulate the BBC. In our view, Ofcom’s analysis of the risks associated with the BBC’s public services activities as set out in the above three consultations is well-informed. In each case the proposed procedures appear to be broadly fit for purpose. 4. One area of concern, however, relates to the circumstances in which BBC activity which be classified as “material”, prompting the envisaged procedures to be deployed. This concern runs across all three consultations.
