Streaming TV Industry Snooping on Viewers at Grand Scale: Report

“A major pain point with ad-based streaming is when the ad repeats too many times or viewers seeing ads they don’t feel are relevant to them,” explained Sarah Lee, a research analyst with Parks Associates, a market research and consulting company specializing in consumer technology products, in Addison, Texas.

“Just 29% of ad-based streaming viewers feel the ads they see are for products and services that are relevant to them,” she told TechNewsWorld. “CTV players are working on features that will heavily use AI to align ads with household preferences and the content surrounding the ad so that viewers see more relevant ads.”
