Respondents saw English as a use- Email: [email protected] ful additional language, but not generally as a threat to their national language. Using k-means, an unsupervised clustering algorithm, we identified two attitudinal groups per country. Respondents with pos- itive attitudes towards English, regardless of nationality, tended to be younger, urban, better educated and more proficient in English than their compatriots with more negative views of English. These within-country differences outweighed between-country ones, for example, that Germans were more confident in the status of their L1, whereas Dutch showed signs of ‘English fatigue’. The findings thus appear to confirm the previously identified divide between elite ‘haves’ versus ‘have-nots’ of English. 1 INTRODUCTION English is becoming increasingly entrenched in continental Europe, especially in Western and Northern European countries. This study focuses on Germany and the Netherlands, two countries where this development is particularly pronounced, especially in the latter given its smaller size and historical imperative to connect economically with the outside world (Ammon & McConnell, 2002, p.

  • Understanding the Phenomenon of Binge-Watching—A Systematic Review
    International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Review Understanding the Phenomenon of Binge-Watching—A Systematic Review Jolanta A. Starosta * and Bernadetta Izydorczyk * Institute of Applied Psychology, Faculty of Management and Social Communication, Jagiellonian University, 30-348 Krakow, Poland * Correspondence: [email protected] (J.A.S.); [email protected] (B.I.) Received: 8 May 2020; Accepted: 18 June 2020; Published: 22 June 2020 Abstract: Binge-watching is a relatively new behaviour pattern whose popularity has been increasing since 2013, ultimately to become one of the most popular ways of spending free time, especially among young people. However, there is still a dearth of research on this phenomenon. The aim of this study is to present the current understanding and psychological conditions of binge-watching, as provided in the research papers published between 2013 and 2020. This systematic review, including 28 articles, addresses different approaches to defining this behaviour, diverse motivations, personality traits, and risks of excessive binge-watching. Its results imply that there are two perspectives in understanding binge-watching. The first is related to entertainment, positive emotions, cognition, and spending free time. However, the second perspective emphasises the negative outcomes of excessive binge-watching and symptoms of behavioural addiction. There is undoubtedly a need for further research to be conducted on diversified populations to reach more profound understanding of binge-watching behaviour patterns. Keywords: binge-watching; behavioural addiction; new technologies; motivation; personality traits 1. Introduction Binge-watching is a relatively new behavioural phenomenon, which is defined as watching between two and six episodes of a TV show in one sitting [1].

  • Telenet Has 600,000 Fixed Line Customers
    PRESS RELEASE Telenet has 600,000 fixed line customers Mechelen, 11 September 2008 – Today Telenet recorded its 600,000 th fixed line customer. The success of Telenet in the area of fixed line telephony is chiefly the result of solid innovation power and well-thought out product development: Telenet was the first company in Belgium to introduce flat-fee phone formulae to the market with FreePhone and FreePhone 24. Last week Telenet launched FreePhone Europe as part of the new Shakes. With 600,000 customers Telenet now has a penetration of nearly 25% of the Flemish market. Approximately one in four Flemish families makes a call using a Telenet fixed line. “The fixed phone line continues to be popular with the middle-aged and seniors”, emphasises Dann Rogge, Director of Product Marketing Telephony and Internet at Telenet, “but we are now seeing an increase in the number of young families opting for a fixed line again. Comfort, operating certainty and a low price are the deciding factors in their decision to go for a fixed line. Young families want to be able to reach each other "as a family" at all times, and they want to be able to do so at an attractive price. That’s not possible with just one subscription for a mobile phone, because at the end of the day a GSM is a very ‘individual’ device and significantly more expensive than a fixed line phone". New phone product: FreePhone Europe. On 8 September the new Telenet Shakes were launched. FreePhone Europe has been introduced for all combinations with a phone product.

  • FAANGS for the Memories
    Cable Congress 2018 FAANGS for the memories 28 March 2018 Cable Congress Event Summary Hardly a presentation went by at the annual meeting of the European Cable Industry A collection of without mention of the FAANGS (Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Netflix, Google). findings from These internet titans were cited as the reason behind cable’s need to consolidate further, Cable Europe’s to embrace mobile more energetically, to shift video transmission to IP, to invest in ever higher speed and capacity, to embed data, machine learning and artificial intelligence in annual Congress, business models and to become an aggregation hub for internet delivered video content. March 6-7 2018 There were also numerous calls for the FAANGS to be blunted by more active oversight in Dublin and regulation. If the time to mend the roof is when it is sunny, then cable is picking the right time to examine its strategy and positioning. European cable growth remains positive, video erosion is slowing and is very minor compared to the high-ARPU US market. The reduced cost to extend network means that the pace of new cable build is growing, and cable businesses are attracting high valuations in the accelerating M&A market. The pace of innovation remains high, and the Congress showcased this, with developments in the traditional cable technologies as well as a recognition that the future would lie in a world of IP video and data-led artificial intelligence processes. Marketing and products are not immune from evolution either – the days when bundling and triple play were the holy grail are over, and there is a recognition that personalisation, ease of use and content aggregation are needed to retain customers whose behaviour and desires are adapting to a digital world.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Dissertations - ALL by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract When Netflix launched in April 1998, Internet video was in its infancy. Eighteen years later, Netflix has developed into the first truly global Internet TV network. Many books have been written about the five broadcast networks – NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, and the CW – and many about the major cable networks – HBO, CNN, MTV, Nickelodeon, just to name a few – and this is the fitting time to undertake a detailed analysis of how Netflix, as the preeminent Internet TV networks, has come to be. This book, then, combines historical, industrial, and textual analysis to investigate, contextualize, and historicize Netflix's development as an Internet TV network. The book is split into four chapters. The first explores the ways in which Netflix's development during its early years a DVD-by-mail company – 1998-2007, a period I am calling "Netflix as Rental Company" – lay the foundations for the company's future iterations and successes. During this period, Netflix adapted DVD distribution to the Internet, revolutionizing the way viewers receive, watch, and choose content, and built a brand reputation on consumer-centric innovation.
