QUOTES: Streaming services of all types are becoming some of the most popular and influential platforms in the world. Streaming has quickly developed a strong presence in a variety of different media markets such as music, television, film and even podcasting. These days, anyone with a smartphone has access to seemingly endless hours of free and paid streaming content. Given that around 85 percent of all Americans ages 18 and up own a smartphone as of 2018, it’s easy to see why this method of entertainment has become so incredibly successful in recent years. Not only is the market becoming widespread, its also becoming highly profitable. Music streaming revenues in the United States reached over 5.5 billion U.S. dollars in 2017, while subscription video-on-demand services brought in an estimated 12.5 billion.

The undisputed frontrunner in video subscription services is Netflix, which had nearly 53 million subscribers in the United States in 2017, more than double that of its closest competitor, Amazon Video. One of the strengths of this type of service is the variety of platforms with which the service can be accessed; aside from the websites themselves, users can access content from video game consoles, smartphone and tablet apps, smart TVs, and others.
