the value for the viewers is changing and it is not necessarily bound to the evolution of tv but instead to the change of the context. Social networks changed habits and behavior of the people that consider now valuable for them some kind of content, interaction and comfort of viewing.

The increasing merger of TV and Internet is expanding the universe of viewers outside the realm of the old cable boxes gathering dust in warehouses

Mattia Nicoletti's insight:

It's all about contents, but in my opinion television set is one of the screens available for contents. 

Gary Hayes's curator insight, May 19, 7:47 AM

Quote "“Television is not a device anymore,” Mary-José Monpetit, lecturer and pioneering work on social, wireless and multi-screen television at the MIT Media Lab, said. “It’s content.”

“If we talk about using the content to create a community then we are using television content to create a community.”

Ms. Monpetit noted that there is a disconnect in the experience viewers have on a television and the experience they have online. While there is a connection forming between television watching and the online world there is still no way of making it a seamless experience.

So instead of creating a traditional interactive television experience, one of her students at MIT created an app to track Super PACs during the last US Presidential election.

Mattia Nicoletti's comment, Today, 2:17 AM
Gary, in your opinion Mary-José Monpetit refers to tv set or television (contents for television)? because tv set in my idea is one of the available screens. In a transmedial point of view tv screen content tells the leading part of the story but even in this case is just a screen.

Why Cross-Screen Marketing Will Be A Game-Changer For The Mobile Industry

Via Stefanie Aßmann
Mattia Nicoletti's insight:
Cross-screen marketing demands patience and creativity in efforts to reach audiences across a fractured media landscape. But the payoff makes it worth it. Because of the technical complexity involved, cross-screen creates plenty of opportunities for companies to help advertisers design and implement campaigns. The problem of attribution — knowing which ad on which device generated a sale or other desired actions — is the greatest barrier to cross-screen. Much of the data needed for effective targeting is dispersed in different databases or belongs to different players in mobile, digital, and broadcasting, limiting the ability of big data tools to predict how users will interact with content across devices.

UK TV entering a 'second golden age' | Rapid TV News

You've never had it so good: research from Samsung has concluded that television is flourishing as never before in the new digital world, empowered rather than threatened by the Internet.
Mattia Nicoletti's insight:

"The survey found that despite 42% conceding that the recession has affected how and what they watch on TV — actually inspiring a tenth to watch more entertaining and escapist content — Brits are watching 16% more TV than a year ago. Nearly two-thirds (62%) had traditions that involve watching TV, with a tenth of viewing now being time-shifted, thus boosting the popularity of catch-up services."

Why You’re Addicted to TV

Why You’re Addicted to TV | screen seriality | Scoop.it
Newsweek talks to the creators of today’s most addictive shows about what they’re doing to make sure we just can’t stop.
Mattia Nicoletti's insight:

"We’re living, it seems, in a new age of television: the Age of the Hyperserial. 'Serialized storytelling looms larger than it did in 2003,' says D.B. Weiss, one of the head writers on Game of Thrones.

 

'If you look at the Emmy nominees of 2003—The Sopranos, Six Feet Under, The West Wing, CSI, and 24—only24 really qualifies as strictly serial in nature. Whereas Game of Thrones,Breaking Bad, Homeland—they all qualify. As bingeing becomes possible and commonplace, it’s only natural that shows should start to take it into account.'

 

The bottom line is that binge watching is more than just a business story—more than just a story about new technologies and new modes of distribution. It’s really a story about the science of storytelling itself."

Netflix CEO Reed Hastings: ‘TV in future will be like a giant iPad’ | Financial Post | screen seriality | Scoop.it

Reed Hastings, the chief executive of Netflix, sat down for an editorial board meeting with the Financial Post..

 

On Canada's download caps: 

 

“It’s a deterrent to Canadian society that exists nowhere else in the world. In Britain, everything is uncapped,” he told the Post. “In the U.S., on Comcast for $45 a month [you get] 300 gigabytes and then [each extra] 10 gigabytes is like a dollar.”

 On the future of apps: 

"It will be completely compatible to have a Netflix app, to have a Rogers app, to have a movie channel app, to have YouTube as an app," he said.

 

"Because in the broadest sense, we compete for relaxation time. … You go home, the kids are in bed, you want to watch something to relax, you've got many choices."....
