IN THE NEWS
Entertainment and media revenues dropped 3.8% to $2 trillion during pandemic-impacted 2020, but PwC’s new Global Entertainment and Media Outlook projects an increase to $2.2 trillion in 2021, hitting $2.6 trillion in 2025 – faster growth than the overall economy. While traditional TV and home video will continue to make up the largest share of total consumer revenue, it is expected to decline 1.2% annually. “After a difficult decade in which broadcasters coped with declining viewership and threats from online advertising while still investing in infrastructure and technology, the sector will near a tipping point by 2025, when revenue from online and connected TV will be just $1 billion smaller than multichannel TV advertising revenue,” said PwC.

TECH TALK
Co-viewing apps are increasingly popular with young audiences, with 23% of viewers saying they have watched via a co-viewing app or service this year, up 20% over 2020, according to Hub Entertainment Research’s “Evolution of the TV Set” report. There are big differences in co-viewing by age – 41% of viewers A16-34 say they’ve used a co-viewing app, compared with 23% of those A35-54 and only 3% of those 55+. “Co-viewing apps and services are becoming increasingly important, no doubt driven in part by recent pandemic experiences,” said David Tice, senior consultant to Hub and co-author of the study. “Content distributors and streaming services that help enable this behavior will increase their appeal to young adults overall, and in particular young men. This is an important consideration with the advent of fully or partially ad-supported streaming services and the desirability of these key demos to advertisers.”
The FTC has opened an investigation into Amazon’s proposed $8.45 billion MGM acquisition, according to The Information. Last month, Amazon filed a petition attempting to force new FTC chair Lina Khan, an antitrust advocate and Amazon critic Lina Khan, to recuse herself from actions against Amazon.

The film launched July 16 in theaters and on HBO Max; it will be available on HBO Max for 31 days from release.
STREAMING
“Black Widow” drew over $215 million in its opening weekend, helped by a $60 million boost from Premier Access sales on Disney+. “Black Widow’s strong performance this weekend affirms our flexible distribution strategy of making franchise films available in theaters for a true cinematic experience and, as COVID concerns continue globally, providing choice to consumers who prefer to watch at home on Disney+,” said Kareem Daniel, Chairman of Disney Media and Entertainment Distribution.
Redbox is expanding its lineup of content available through its AVOD platform, which includes Free Live TV and Free On Demand. The service has deepened added content from Shout!
