According to a new report from wireless video innovator InterDigital, Inc. and research firm Parks Associates, more than half of sports viewers hit frustrating roadblocks like buffering, lag, and poor image quality. The report titled, Streaming Live Sports: Where Opportunity Meets Complexity, examines how viewers consume live sports in various forms, including SVOD, DTC, PPV, and paywall systems.
“The sports media landscape is transforming, as sports programming transitions from traditional broadcast and cable networks to streaming,” said Michael Goodman, Senior Analyst, Parks Associates. “Sports fans now have more ways than ever to engage with their favorite teams or sports. Many niche sports and out-of-market matches, previously unavailable, are now easily accessible, which can expand the sports audience, and providers have new opportunities to engage viewers in interactive activities, such as multicasts, live chats, and in-game betting, provided the experience is easy and seamless.”
