Re: Linear is old tech - on demand is the future
Interesting report here, in which we have confirmation that the number of subscriptions to streaming services in the UK is now higher than for conventional pay TV.

Extract:

According to OFCOM, there are now more TV subscriptions to Netflix, Amazon and Sky’s NOWTV than to traditional pay TV services in the UK: in the first quarter of 2018, UK subscriptions to the three largest online streaming services overtook pay TV subscriptions for the first time (15.4 million viewers versus 15.1 million). Meanwhile, annual revenue growth for online audio-visual services grew at a robust pace of 25% in 2017.
