The future of TV is apps - Head Of Sales @ Simplestream

The new ofcom report is out! All broadcasters, including Channel 4 and ITV, are increasingly investing in their streaming services as viewers move online. Matt Hill, research and planning director at Thinkbox, the marketing body for commercial TV, said it was disappointing that Ofcom was still choosing to focus so heavily on live shows despite it being a category in decline. He said: “Live TV remains vital, but it’s only one side of TV. On-demand is where TV is rapidly growing – which is why every TV company has been devoting so much energy and investment in developing on-demand services. “And this strategy is paying off – as Ofcom’s report shows, on-demand TV is growing more than any other type of video" I couldn't agree more! If anyone wants to launch an On Demand TV service - let me know!! Simplestream does this day in day out.
