2021 predictions: What to expect from broadcasters and streamers
We expect that the installed base of media streamers will increase worldwide to nearly 300 million by 2024. In April 2020, linear TV viewing was up 14 year on year, while SVOD consumption rose by 92. One major hurdle broadcasters had to overcome was Covid's impact in limiting the flow of content and the consequential rise in production costs, with highinsurance premiums adding significantly to costs. - www.ibc.org

Broadcasters like the BBC, ITV and Sky have quite strict limits on what can and can't appear in credits, with the Albert logo being one of the few images to make it through beyond TV production company logos. - www.adambowie.com
