For Gen Z, music festivals like Coachella or Stagecoach aren’t just about the music—they’re about self-expression. Because of how closely Gen Z links festivals and fashion, apparel brands like Pascun are using the events to connect with the young festivalgoers. And Pinterest is tapping both online and on-site activations for Coachella.

On today's podcast episode, we discuss what the 2024 Oscars taught us about the future of awards shows, whether its time to give up on email, how Netflix's sports strategy will play out, if the idea of "news" can survive online, how the money in the world is shared between us, and more. Tune in to the discussion with our analyst Bill Fisher, forecasting analyst Zach Goldner, and director of forecasting Oscar Orozco.

On today's podcast episode, we discuss what TV even is anymore, how the redefining of TV is reshaping marketers' approach, and why not all data is created equal.

Tune in to the discussion with our analyst Ross Benes and Alison Gensheimer, head of Nielsen marketing.

Disney and NBCU signal a major shift in CTV ad buys: Both are working with The Trade Desk to make inventory available programmatically.

South By Southwest was last week, and AI and VR were all the buzz. Gen Alpha is growing up with these technologies, which means the next generation of consumers will not just be used to AI and VR—they’ll expect to see it. Here are three takeaways from our analyst regarding tech trends at the event.

DirecTV wants to cut over the air out of the picture: A new “No Locals” discount is an attempt to stave off the inevitable decline of linear TV.

In 2023, the number of US scripted series declined by 14% over the prior year, according to FX Networks. For years, content production soared, with gains occurring nearly every single year. The drop-off that occurred last year is unprecedented.

On today's podcast episode, we discuss how copyright lawsuits could down OpenAI (or the whole industry), whether publishers will land on The New York Times side of the generative AI (genAI) copyright debate or on the Axel Springer and Associated Press side, and how copyright will impact the creative arts.

On today's podcast episode, we discuss how all the different TV terms fit together, to what degree subscription revenues are moving from pay TV to streaming, who's winning the "digital pay TV" race, and how the new sports streaming service from Fox, ESPN, and Warner Bros. Discovery could change everything. "In Other News," we talk about what a new sponsor logo placement from the WWE will look like and how the US ad market is getting on to start the year. Tune in to the discussion with our analyst Ross Benes.

Every major streaming company—and some not so major ones—is investing in live sports. As they compete for broadcast rights, they’re seeking advertisers.
