The pandemic was the catalyst for streaming services, which gained traction amongst a broader range of consumers. Over the last year, several traditional media companies dove into the streaming space, taking advantage of their vast video libraries and launching just in time to provide consumers in lockdown with more binge-worthy content. The recently launched The Gauge, Nielsen’s new monthly total TV and streaming snapshot, shows that streaming usage across all television homes has climbed to 26% of all time spent on TV. Streaming and broadcast now account for half of television time, with usage split evenly between the two channels.
“The past year has categorically shifted the television viewing landscape. Even as people begin to dive back into their pre-pandemic activities, based on the changes many made to enable streaming coupled with the variety of newly introduced services, we expect people to keep sampling and exploring their options. Maybe just as importantly, as production ramps back up, new content will enter the space, driving additional traction,” says Brian Fuhrer, SVP, Product Strategy at Nielsen.
Hear from Brian on how the television landscape is shifting, how this total streaming and TV snapshot might evolve over time with the emergence, launch and potential consumer adoption of additional streaming services and what this might mean for content creators and advertisers.

Methodik
The Gauge ist ein monatliches Intervall, das die Gesamtfernsehnutzung (TUT) für Rundfunk, Streaming, Kabel und Sonstige mit einer Aufschlüsselung nach Streaming-Kanälen anzeigt.
- Alle anderen TV-Geräte: Die wichtigsten Komponenten sind AOT (ALL Other Tuning), VOD, Streaming über eine Kabel-Set-Top-Box, Gaming und die Nutzung anderer Geräte (DVD-Wiedergabe).
- Anderes Streaming ist jegliches Streaming mit hoher Bandbreite (Video) an das Fernsehgerät, das nicht aufgeführt ist.
- Statistiken: Anteil nach Kategorie, Anteil an TUT aufgeschlüsselt nach Streaming-Vertreibern
Streaming über Kabel-Set-Top-Boxen wird nicht den jeweiligen Streaming-Anbietern gutgeschrieben, sondern ist in der Gruppe "Alle anderen" enthalten.
Data used is derived from two separately weighted panels and combined to create the infographic. Streaming data comes from a subset of TV households in the National TV panel that are enabled with the Streaming Meter, while linear sources as well as total usage are based on viewing from the overall TV panel.
Verschlüsseltes lineares Streaming wird sowohl in der linearen Gruppe (Rundfunk, Kabel) als auch unter der jeweiligen linearen Streaming-App (z. B. Hulu Live, Youtube TV, andere Streaming-MVPD/vMVPD-Apps) angezeigt.
