Thanks for this - I agree with what they are saying, that the trend is towards streaming, but I also agree with what else they said - that streaming will co-exist with linear, not replace it completely.

Quote:
Susanne Aigner, GSVP & GM Germany/Austria/Switzerland and Benelux, Discovery Communications. She said that while consumption of on-demand content is growing, “There is no linear vs digital [for Discovery]. It’s a co-existence… we’re providing offers for different customers in different situations.”

The exec said that, from Discovery’s findings, “the tiniest number” of consumers are only using OTT, and that it complements traditional consumption.
