Audio Or Video Market Growth Backed By Core Demand Fundamentals
The future expansion of the audio or video market is expected to be propelled by the increasing streaming consumption. Streaming consumption refers to the immediate online access and playback of media content, such as video or audio, without the need for permanent storage on a device. This rise in streaming is primarily due to widespread access to high-speed internet, which allows users to easily and continuously enjoy high-quality content on demand without interruptions. Audio and video formats are crucial for enabling streaming consumption, serving as the main digital content types that users can instantly access, play, and experience in real-time over the internet without downloading. For instance, in January 2024, a report published by Nielsen, a US-based software development company, revealed that in 2023, audiences in the U.S. streamed the equivalent of 21 million years of video content, marking a significant 21% increase from the 17 million years streamed in 2022. Thus, the growing streaming consumption is a major force driving the expansion of the audio or video market.
