Beginning in 2021, Nielsen – a global leader in audience measurement – began tracking the share of viewership between legacy linear providers (broadcast and cable) and streaming services. Since the launch of that tracking, streaming has been continually gaining on linear TV. Now, the latest data from Nielsen shows that streaming has overtaken linear TV for the first time in May.
New research from Nielsen reinforces an important point for those of us in the residential home entertainment systems – no matter what the platform, Americans have an ‘unwavering love for music.’ File this report in the “Good News” department.
We live in a time rich in options for ways to connect with and consume content. If I asked you to pick which source was the number one method that adults aged 18 and older use to consume content today, which would you choose: Smartphone? Tablet? PC? TV connected device? TV? AM/FM radio?
If you picked that last option, AM/FM radio, you would be correct! Fully 93% of all adults use an AM/FM radio to consume content on a weekly basis. Surprised? Hold on to your hat…that’s just one of the many surprising results in new research study from The Nielsen Company that says we are now in an audio resurgence.
