IN THE NEWS

The US now has more streaming subscriptions than it does people, according to a 1Q21 report from Ampere. The average consumer subscribes to four or more SVODs, with one-quarter reporting they subscribe to five or more. “In 2020, pay TV penetration dropped below 60% for the first time – down from more than 80% at the beginning of 2015 – with consumers increasingly shifting to SVOD services,” said Ampere Research Manager Toby Holleran. Ampere credits the pandemic, as well as the launches of Peacock and HBO Max, with contributing to the spread of the streaming pool.

“In keeping with our awards-show-as-a-movie approach, we’ve assembled a truly stellar cast of stars,” said Academy Awards producers Jesse Collins, Stacey Sher and Steven Soderbergh. “There’s so much wattage here, sunglasses may be required.” Instead of having a host, the ceremony will have 15 stars presenting, including Joaquin Pheonix, Renee Zellweger, Brad Pitt, Bong Joon-Ho, Angela Bassett, Halle Berry, Don Cheadle, Bryan Cranston, Laura Dern, Harrison Ford, Regina King, Marlee Matlin, Rita Moreno, Reese Witherspoon and Zendaya. The show airs live Sunday, April 25 on ABC.

It’s been a rocky road for Gawker, but the media news and gossip site could live to snark another day. Bustle Digital Group has confirmed the hire of former Gawker writer Leah Finnegan as editor-in-chief of a new version of the web site, which BDG first attempted to resurrect in 2019 after purchasing it in a 2018 bankruptcy court auction.

Octopus Interactive, a network of interactive screens inside of Uber and Lyft vehicles, struck a deal with Nielsen to incorporate Octopus Interactive’s content into Nielsen’s Digital Content Ratings. The move will add Nielsen third-party measurement to Octopus’ first-party data effective in 2Q21. “There’s something special about the rideshare environment that causes passengers to sit up and pay attention to the content playing on Octopus Interactive screens, and now we’ll have additional data to prove that out,” said Cherian Thomas, CEO of Octopus Interactive.

Vice Media Group has launched Rec Room, an e-commerce platform that covers “products competitors shy away from” (sample: “How to Buy Art from San Quentin Death Row Inmates”). The vertical offers editorially curated content and shoppable recommendations to readers, as well as “a groovy 70s basement vibe.” Promotion will be across VICE’s home page and other editorial promotion channels.
