It predicts that those under 24 will abandon linear TV by 2027, those between 25 and 44 will abandon it by 2035 and those over 45 will be the ones still using the system.
Doesn't surprise me on those splits - it is being driven by the young, who will probably find some way to stream what they want for nothing.

Not having a go at them per se - just that they are more tech savvy than the rest - whilst those over 45 consist of a lot of people who would struggle to tell you what streaming is
