Streaming video online is on the rise in the U.S., and how consumers tune in differs greatly across services.
Digital redefined, and now dominates, the music business landscape. Whether downloaded, streamed or watched on a computer or mobile phone, the hyper-fragmented world of music offers unprecedented opportunities and challenges where both the consumer and the industry need to find their way.
Games continue to be the most popular app category, and according to Nielsen research, 93 percent of app downloaders -- those who have downloaded an app within the past 30 days -- are willing to pay for the games they play.
