Linear TV is a real-time television service that broadcasts scheduled programs, conventionally over the air or through satellite/cable, not streamed to a specific user. Nearly, all broadcast television services count as linear TV.

What is Linear TV?
Linear TV is a traditional system in which a viewer watches a scheduled TV program at the time it’s broadcast and on its original channel. It also can be recorded via DVR and watched later. Linear TV still boasts the largest market, however, reach is fragmenting due to the increasingly competitive advanced TV landscape.

Linear TV (viewed at the time of broadcast) continued to play an important role in most participants’ viewing habits, and was particularly valued for ‘event TV’ content, live sports and, to a slightly lesser extent, drama series and soaps.
