INSIGHTS 2020 Traditional TV and streaming US UK Germany Denmark Sweden Norway Finland 2 AudienceProject Insights 2020 05 Editorial 07 Traditional TV CONTENTS 17 Streaming 35 About the study AudienceProject Insights 2020 3 4 AudienceProject Insights 2020 Streaming accelerates dramatically during lockdown Traditional TV under pressure with streaming consumption skyrocketing Welcome to the 4th edition of our annual TV and streaming study. It would be redundant to editorialise on what a strange year this has been, so let’s stick to the data. And the data from this year’s study cer- tainly implies that the ongoing Covid crisis is heavily influencing TV and streaming consumption patterns in 2020 - and probably beyond. In all covered markets (except Finland), the reported weekly traditional EDITORIAL TV viewing continues to drop (though the rate of viewing decline slows down compared to previous YoY indications). And for streaming, the jump in reported consumer attention compared to 2019 is enormous. Now, in some cases, streaming does come with ads, so it is not all bad news for the TV advertising market, even though we see our panel reporting in solid numbers, that they are streaming at the expense of traditional TV. So, for traditional TV providers who have built up strong streamed offerings, there is some positivity here too. The study also looks at attitudes towards YouTube, how consumers are highly impressed by Disney+, which streaming services are the most popular and much more. We hope you enjoy it and find insights within that will help as we enter the hopefully smoother sailing of 2021. Martyn Bentley Commercial Director, UK @ AudienceProject AudienceProject Insights 2020 5 6 AudienceProject Insights 2020 TRADITIONAL TV Traditional TV is undoubtedly under pressure, but the decline has slowed in several markets this year. Reported ad irrelevance, overexposure and intent to stream more, are not going to give the format an easy ride next year.
